I had a sailboat and didn't like to manually step the mast, so I automated it with a remote controlled winch, worked  very well, yes, I am lazy. Bob.  

Since this area is reserved for "anything" I thought that I would share some of my other endeavors.  Bob.

Here is the T1 pulling some FAM cars also.  

I forgot to download the conclusion to this project, so here it is.  

This post is for Fonzie.  Thanks for the heads up on my not following the rules about the price, and I apologize for the misstep, but, actually I have sold some items that were represented by my posts in "For Sale", so all wasn't lost.  Bob.

Here is a picture of the motor blocks that come with the collection.  One block is apart and only for parts. Bob.

Yes, they are 1:32.  Garich Light Transport produced these in the early 90's.  Very good likeness to the prototype.  There is more info. on this website, just search Garich Light Transport.  I have made molds for the rest of the loco.  I have poured 3 shells from the mold and it works beautifully.  The power was from NWSL, 3 axle trucks which they are not presently making.  I suppose that if a quantity of these were ordered, they might make them, I don't know.  Another source of the trucks could be the MTH dash 8.  The wise way would be to buy a used one, then you would have the electronics and the trucks.  There might have to be a slight adjustment to the length of the side rails to fit the motor block.  I have molds for the NWSl motor block case, but the gears, motor and shafts would have to be manufactured. There are original metal parts also that would be sent.  I also have a few NWSl motor blocks and they would be sent also.  There are grills already made from Plano etching and if more would be needed, I have instructed them to make them with my  tooling and sell them to anyone.   A mold of one end of the A unit is also included so as to make a B unit.  The molds are to my knowledge to be complete and if there is anything missing, it would not be much and that would be up to you to make those parts. I provided a complete kit to someone and to my knowledge there is nothing missing.  The price is 6,000.00 and the cost of shipping would be what ever it is.  I would suggest you come to Fl. and pick it up, then there would be no dispute as to what you are recieving.

Yes, it would take someone who is really into E8s, it would b e a nice project for someone, Bob. If someone were to start from scratch and have the molds made it would cost 15 to 20 thousand, I am only asking 6,000. Bob.

I didn't follow proper protocall about posting in the for sale section, so Could you delete all of my posts about selling My stuff please?  I will come back a post the items properly with prices, Thanks Bob.

Thanks.

Jeff, I found some pictures of a Boonton passenger car and they look like they are heavyweights.  I have molds for some heavyweights, trucks etc.  but they are 85 ft. and have 3 axle trucks.  I have two J&M cars and 3 Kern valley Railway cars all 85 ft. and 3 axle trucks. Bob

Thanks Jerry, that means a lot to me.  I just look at my trains all of the time and think that it is time they were used more than I use them, so you are right, I hope they go to a good home also, Bob.

I can see that it will be too difficult to sell as a complete train so I am cancelling this sale and will sell these items individually.

If you are talking about the Garich Light Transport molds and shells, yes, in it's day, they were the talk of the town.  One could revive those and make some money. Bob.

I have to make a revision to this post.  There will be 1 less car sold in this train as I have to reserve the 1 car to be sold with the molds for reference in assembly. Thanks Bob.

T1 and tender and first heavyweight car are scratchbuilt.  Baggage holds TIU.  J&M and Fine Art Model cars are brass and the Kern Valley cars are resin.  Complete 7900.00 or best offer.   

Complete train. Locos are reduced to 1:32 from LGBs.  All of the Superliner cars are scratch built by me.  Asking 7500.00 or best offer, one of a kind in the world. Video:

Very very slow, but it is keeping me busy.

Well my trains are just sitting there and I don't care to run them, so it's time to sell before they deteriorate to the point of needing repair.  I have lost interest. Bob

I forgot to include these items E-8 shells, also included in the sale.

I am starting out slow with my stuff and the first thing is the Garich E-8 molds.  I have all of the part molds and also a mold to make the B unit.  Here is a picture of the molds and I have many extra small parts.  Taking offers. Bob.

Beautiful Jerry, but isn't that an E-7? 

thanks Joe, I like looking at them myself. Bob
