I've seen any number of scrap yard scenes for cars, etc, but not many scenes for locos and rail cars. So you can imagine my great surprise when I ran across these modeled scenes this morning at my local flea market. Turns out they were done by an older model railroader that just can't do it anymore.
A daughter of a friend of this gentleman was selling them off for the older gentleman,...so there were no bargain basement pricing one might expect at a flea market. But still I thought the pricing was fair considering the nice detail.
Regrettably I could only afford to buy 4 scenes for myself, and be able to think I can incorporate them into my new layout. There were longer scenes and shorter scenes,...I bought two of each size.
She still has I think it was 3 short scenes, and 2 long scenes. They are all different, so none alike, but all nice.
If someone else is interested I can go back there tomorrow and purchase the remaining ones for them?? The long scenes were priced at $38, and the short ones for $20.
Let me know if you are truly interested,...meanwhile enjoy the photos of these scenes...
PS: BTW they are HO scale
(I term the first group of photos the 'steam engine' scene)
