    Although my MRR interests have been mainly in HO, when a friend of mine gave me his father's N-Scale stuff, it immediatedly became apparent that N was the way go. Why? Well because in what he gave me I got 61 engines, 511 freight cars, and about 50 passenger cars. My problem is that these engines and cars are from a dozen different lines. My interest has always been ATSF (now BNSF). Since I live in Albuquerque NM, this seems to be quite logical. However, I now have many engines, both diesal and steam, that I will never have a use for. And the manufacturer's lists is varied also. So, if anyone is looking for anything in particular, I may have it to trade.

    Hello Bob, welcome to Trainboard, and especially to the N scale forum :D

    As Paul says, if you could post a list of stuff you have for sale in the yellow pages here, that would be great!

    Welcome to the TrainBoard Bob. Give us a list of what HO you have to trade, and what N you want.

    There are several of us who will trade kids, cats, girlfriends, old Harleys, Marx, Lionel, half a hamburger, a dozen cookies... WAIT a MINUTE, scratch the HARLEY!! :D

    Bob wants to trade N. Will take HO, Harleys, Hummers, Dogs, cats, but no wifes or kids. Girlfriends subject to careful scrutiny.
