Pete Piszczek Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Unfortunately, I never got around to adding any of these kits to my strategic reserve. This topic is being followed on a number of forums, when the remaining kits are sold, if it is via auction versus buy it now, it will be quite interesting to see how high they go.

Glorious NSE Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Likewise Pete - I was always in the 'when I get some cash/time' mode. The CR coil car variants especially were quite cool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Piszczek Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 FWIW, the bidding has started on ebay. This should get interesting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof Klyzlr Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Incorrect. It's gone past interesting to a bit crazy... Dear Craig, Agreed, based on the previous "RRP" prices, the RY prop looks like he may well realise 2+ cars worth of $$$ per single eBayed kit. (honesty compels me to admit I'm watching them to, would love 1 or 2 MoPac cabooses...) Happy Modelling, Aim to Improve, Prof Klyzlr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigZ Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 $70 for a coil car... No thanks I had been meaning to order a couple of the G41 cars...oh well. I do have a stash of several PD3000 cars for trade bait, once the hysteria settles down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Grant 4472 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I have a couple of the Mopac cabooses. Luvverly kits, although one ended up as an IHB transfer caboose and the other is in the process of CSX-ifying. Jon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_long Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I'd only just come across railyard, a real shame. I quite liked the G47 gons and the covhops. But those eBay prices coupled with international shipping means I shan't be bidding unfortunately. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
