My Mother and I share the hobby and she just got fantastic deal on soem locomotives.
For approximately $75 USD she won a IHC B&O 4-6-2 President Washington, an AHM 0-8-0 Switcher made by Rivarossi, and two Bachmann locomotives, one a Chessie F-7 and the other a Union Pacific Steam Loco.
The IHC alone id worth more than what she paid for all of these.
The AHM and IHC are missing some small parts that I need to track down like the air tank on the nose of the AHM and the boiler front on the IHC but for what she paid that is nothing to cry over.
All of them run though the 0-8-0 runs rather rough currently due to age and desperate need of cleaning. If I can get them away from her long enough I will post some pics of the Loco's for you all to see and also perhaps get some leads on where I can find the missing Parts for them.
