    If it makes you happy, spend it. If I can afford it I buy it. That's why my basement is stuffed. And I keep on stuffing it more.

    The route 66 flatcar is not just a beauty, it's a steal. The two tone late 50's Dodge cars... whether resin or metal die cast are awesome. 1958 ? Good Stuff !

    • @dagryffynhobby
      @dagryffynhobby  Год назад +1

      I was hoping they were diecast, but they are resin. But that’s fine, I love the look of it and for $8 it’s a heck of a deal.

    Another great video, Dave! I hear ya' on those scale sized cars. It's hard to spot 'em on eBay, thus the advantage of attending train shows. I finally got one of those 783 Hudson's. Ever since I saw your videos on that one, I've been a drooling fool for one, and it arrived today. It's HUGE! (that's what she said). Keep up the great work, Dave!

    Great looking models you've gotten, Dave. I think you've gotten a lot of freight cars for a great price. $10+ each isn't bad. You got 7 cars that you're happy with, just all at once! They make a great looking consist, although maybe you didn't need another Baby Ruth box car. But that's your 'thing', so why not?

    All those cars for $75 is one hell of a deal, budget-buster or no! Look at what the brand-new typical O Gauge car goes for! I'd rather spend $75 for seven than $75 for one brand-new-in-the-box any day!
    As far as a Allentown show video is concerned if you have enough stills and enough video to make a combination "slide show/video," say eight to ten minutes long, go for it!

    Hey Dave, sorry we missed each other again but will keep trying. As you know I blew my $25 budget at 2:50 PM on Sunday when I spied 4 beautiful Lionel Pennsylvania coaches that were custom painted to resemble Jersey Central Passenger coaches by a Hobby Store in Brocktown NJ that's sadly no longer in business. The cars are beautiful and in great shape. Some bulbs needed replacement but otherwise they look really neat. They were $70 for 4 cars. Not a bad deal. I like your Jersey Central cars, glad you scored them.

    • @wayneantoniazzi2706
      @wayneantoniazzi2706 Год назад +1

      I did the same, I took some Williams passenger cars I couldn't unload at shows here in VA and repainted and re-decaled them into NYO&W passenger cars to go with the Lionel Camelback I've got. Not hard to do either and they look pretty good if I say so myself.
