Bill, Yes, it is sad. In Europe they seem to be able to keep centuries old
structures yet in our country too many times demolition is the answer and on
buildings far newer than those in Europe.
There are no plans to tear this magnificent structure down though, there are
ongoing restorations.

I thought the question was going to be about where the trucks are that we
ordered and paid for maybe a year ago. I was just helping out and got 1
pair so $20.00 is not going to kill me
I have since sold the SAL boxcar that was paid for 2 years ago - and still
no one has yet.
Thank You,
Hi Bill: Got mine several years ago and in my usual distracted way just got

Speaking of trucks:
I received the SP Daylight passenger trucks from River Raisin. I am
extremely happy, I don't think $70 is out of the question for them. As usual

I am amazed at the number of old school box o stick kits that still sell on
eBay. If you have a snow plow it is a guaranteed $75.00+ sale. Almost the
same for the MOW camp cars. If it is a nicely assembled snow plow it could
go $200.00+.
I am not knocking the kits because in the proper hands

But if a kit is 40+ years old and is still a box of sticks why is the new
owner going to be the one to make it into a car?
I would guess the new owner wants a car of the type he purchased. I do not
know of anyone whose hobby is collecting vintage kits. Then again, there are

Back when I was living in a mobile home, I used to build those old stick

added a layout room, things changed because the plastic kits were also

There can be a lot said for a kit that actually contains several types
of construction materials. For instance if you want a typical outside
braced car you will have metal Z or hat braces. These would look good
cast in plastic or resin. The wooden sides will continue to look good

Nice work Andrew and an excellent illustration of how talented and computer

never get produced otherwise. Are you offering your design for sale on
