HEY GUYS !!!!! GESS WHAT? I HAVE NO MORE MONEY!!!
I spent it all at a train show saturday. I got deal after deal after deal on the stuff I got!
I got a turntable (manual) for $5, a MEC boxcar for $3, and MEC boxcar kit for $7.50, a PRR crearance car for $3 (oringal price was above $3. I got it out of a box the said that every thing inside was $3 end of story) red lights, a dumby F7 unite (which I nicked named F***U unite cause I thought it was a cheep engine that worked but hey I can crash it now with out have to worry about damaging the motor cause it does not have one!) a bumper (dead end pice)
now there is a funny story that goes with the bumper.
It was the end of the show there was hardly anyone left looking at the layout that was set up. I had a $1 left. it was $4.15, I stood there looked like I would really like it but doun't have enought money. I had been to that booth before to the clearance car and the lights so the lady who was running that booth knew that I only had change and no bills, so she gave it to me for my last $1.
I went there with.. are you ready? $18.81 I came out with .14 cents. talk about cutting it close or what? But hey most of it was ready to roll only my MEC kit needed to be put together which took oh about 5 to 10 min. the doors are held in place with white glue and the under frame and the container are held together with white glue. I was up untill 12:45 am using my new items.
I am one happy boy!
