Bob Stanage brass & a CZ:
Following are SOME of Bob's brass: locos, a Slumbercoach and a complete CZ. As it's a busy time of the year, will accept best offer on any & all rcvd by Wednesday, Jan 8. Questions on any?
Two suggestions: if on a budget of say $500 and interested in 2 items & want to stay within your budget? Just tell your 1st & 2nd priority. Also as most offer in even dollars ($50, $200, etc) offer an odd number like $57 or $206. Again, I'll split difference of reasonable offers: if your offer $200 and 2nd high is $170.you get for $185. Also, will be at the LaCrosse 4000 Foundation RR Show on Sat Jan 25 with 2 full tables of Bob's models & RRiana (Arch Hayden will probably be with me to help) Can hand deliver winnings there. It's the largest tri-state RR show outside of Chicago & benefits Q Hudson #4000! Also Amtrak's EPB stops daily! Email offers to gvlc6@hotmail.com or call (641) 923-2573 (am out of town Mon-Thurs to Outback Bowl - Go Hawks) Tks! Gerald Edgar
