Mint MTH Big Boy never even displayed
BrentGroth replied to BrentGroth's topic in For Sale / Wanted / Trade
Jerry, Thanks for the help. I hope foam rubber on all sides is enough. I've got an Accucraft Cab Forward on lay-a-way, I plan to drive to California to pick it up. I's not only expensive to travel from SLC to southern Cal, there is the horrible California sales tax. But, what is the cost if the shippers get their hooks into it? The forum computer is telling me to open an access for these replies on my control panel to forward them to my email, or I will only receive one. I can't find this panel, can anyone send directions, a map, a hammer?? -
Willing to sell a absolutely new MTH Big Boy. Never ran, never displayed all boxes including original shipping carton. Original manuals warranty cards, ect. Same price as January eBay sale ($2,300+shipping ) but in better condition, no exposure from display situation. Pick up preferred, near Salt Lake City, or will ship, your choice.

Wanted-Like New- MTH Big Boy, Challenger or Hudson
BrentGroth replied to ramburgy's topic in For Sale / Wanted / Trade
I spoke of some new MTH steam that I might make available on the bottom of the thread on the other "Wanted Big Boy". The thread is from the member in Germany. I try not to use eBay, some great guys, but to many dis-honest ones. Ray Manley in KC, and I, have done business, and I like him, too. -
If anyone else is looking for a MTH Big Boy, I have one never run, never out of the box. I'm not excited to get rid of it, but I might be talked out of it. I also have one each of the MTH Challengers that might be available. Please understand there is nothing wrong with these. I was working with Walt Permann, who owned Custom Model products, a distributor of Accucraft, and Row, brass in gauge one. When he passed, and the distributorship closed, I purchased some of his inventory. So, the MTH that are duplicates of the brass, MIGHT go.

Anyone have a set of USA Zephyr cars for sale?
BrentGroth replied to BrentGroth's topic in For Sale / Wanted / Trade
Chuck, I don't have an observation car yet, but the three dome pieces are on their way.. I didn't know Ro had a Lay-A-Way plan, interesting. Nothing is set in stone yet, but I try to support the little guy since my business is one. Thanks Brent -

Thanks Chuck, I spoke to both my dealer and Ro today. I don't have any huge rush, just want to get rolling before the Zephyr cars are not available for some reason. But, I don't want to have buyers remorse. I bought a 13 car set of USA Daylight cars and later found a 16 car set of Accucraft, no comparison. I lived blocks from the Zephyr station and knew it well. USA's are nice, but? I don't want to hear later of a more prototypical version. My dealer has a set of USA's in stock and will accept lay-a-ways, so there are advantages over buying from Ro direct. Brent PS I love USA's prototypical folding steps. That's the only advantage over Accucraft's Daylight cars. -

Chuck, While I would prefer a set with an already modified Observation, I am a firm believer in buying through dealers, so I will talk to mine. Brent PS Maybe Pig Turd Alley will see trains again. -

Chuck, I only found one damaged diner on ebay. I can buy new ones as cheap as that. Were you referring to other cars or a set that I missed? Thanks, Brent -

Do you remember how many cars he had? Not a member, While I have a house in Amador. I still go to work in Utah, so I don't belong to SVGRS. I assume you live near Sacramento. How do I contact you or his family faster than this? My number is (435) 714-2369
