HUGE Guy Stuff (Train) Auction in ROSEYVILLE - This WEEK END ONLY !

Classic Toy Trains Forum

Hi

I’m new to this place, and some of you may know me. I was abducted into the Chief’s house this past year. And it has been a bit trying. There was another sublime occupant that had set up camp here (his name is Berg), and he thinks he is the MASTER. Anyway, I have an opportunity to “level out the playing field” and ALL OF YOU WILL BENEFIT !!!

The two scoundrels have left for the weekend, (gone for a bath/cleaning at the lake), And I have full control and responsibility for the “Castle”. So I have decided to conduct an AUCTION.

Here are the rules:

  1. All the GUY stuff goes ! (Trains, Layout, Boats, Guns, Tools, JD stuff, you get the idea)

  2. All monies collected will be sent to: The William Techumsah Sherman Museum in Lancaster Ohio.

  3. Identify ANY Guy thing your interested in, then BID on it!! You will automatically win, unless someone else decides to overbid you. You can then bid again if you want.

  4. The Auction ends on Tuesday morning at 7:00 am (eastern time)

  5. If you post a picture of an item your bidding on, then you will automatically win that item, subsequent bids will NOT be accepted.

  6. Bribes are accepted in the form of Kibbles, NO D… GRITS !!!

  7. Items belonging to Berg will be free for those willing to take them.

I will bid $5.00 for Chief’s 454 c.i. snowblower…

3

I’ll offer $2.25 and a bag of kibbles for the bass boat.

4

Since its for such a good cause I’ll over bid on this item and say .99 and a bag of kibbles I know I bid 10 times it value as it had NS on it if it had CSX it would of been an easy $500.00 bid but as all said I’ll take that engine off your hands and I’ll deal with it even thou it is a NS

5

Oh this is JUST too Good !

I will bid $.02 each on the lot of 684 Switches.

For the coaling station $1.15

Pass on NS scale Die cast ore cars.

For the scale Lionel Big Boy $25.00 (need it for parts)

Legacy system — No Bid

Above NS engine:

Original Value - probably $215

Looks like its a repaint to NS… (Deduct $320.00)

Since the proceed going to such a good cause … (add $50.00)

TOTAL BID - $165.00

Shipping Cost (seller pays) $14.50

Chief when you ship the engine to me, don’t forget to send the donation check to Lancaster. ($151.50)

6

I’ll give well gee its for a good cause so lets say .25 for each of the NS coal cars

I can always paint it to look like CSX or something like a Central Ohio railroad

I know at one time Chiefie had this parked in your front lawn back when the OhiSNOW boys threatened to come down and overthrow his band of Roseyville Rebel Renegade Rascals…I know several of your neighbors complained about it devaluing their property values so I will move it off your property for $100…non-negotiable. I’m sure there is a huge brown spot of dead grass underneath it so I’ll throw in a bag of grass seed to sweeten the deal.

I’ll take the Legacy system for $2 and a bag of kibble. Also, I’ll bid $1 for all the realtrax switches. I have a theory that they can be combined into a single working switch, but it might take some work and I’m sure to need as many of them as possible to make it work.

Hey Jim - welcome back!

9

OK I’m in…but just because the proceeds are going to the museum…most of that stuff is just junk, and doesn’t work.

I’ll bid $57.50 for all those moldy oldie Post War Locos. They’ll all need rewiring, and probably new paint. I’ll need to clean all that insulation out of the smoke units to get them working properly again.
