I agree, very nice clock! Much better than those Lionel Toy Train clocks that our "friends and family" usually buy for us!

Did they get it from a specific store?

Edit.... Found two types at Amazon. Not bad prices

Does it include the support piece to hold it Dave? I like it!



The only train thing I got train related was an Ann Arbor 4750 C/H from Trainman (I bought it, but my wife gave it to me). I look for models I get to handle on the Maryland and Delaware, and we had a couple of these in CRDX reporting marks last year.

If you mean the bracket, yes. It comes exactly as you see in the photo.

OH yea,Almost forgot...General Dynamics(who I work for) gave us all a $5 calculator and $15 gift card to Windixie for christmas......after 10 million dollars over sales for the year(60 million gross).last 2 years(this is my 3rd with them) was a full pay check or right at a grand.

I got the new Micro-Trains T&NO caboose, a Kato SP F-3A, and 5 deLuxe Innovations SP covered hoppers.

The first year I worked for Chase Manhattan I received $300 and a day off with pay as a Christmas bonus.  The last Christmas I worked for them ($2.3 BILLION in profits AFTER taxes that year) everyone including me who wasn't above a certain level received a card good for one free rental at Blockbuster Video.  Everyone above the certain level received a check for no less than five figures.  They also gave me a jacket for saving $6 million dollars one year.

I got the new Montana Rail Link book and a boxcar that is out of era for me, but has a nice cat logo on the side that my daughters liked when they picked it out. It's a keeper!   ;D

This looks like a bad E-BAY shot. My stocking stuffers from
Downtown Canada :- Wanna bet I screw the first switch
stand up while screaming. Holy laser detail kits Batman. Where's
my cast lead? Mostly detail stuff that can make a CP TO SP conversion.

Chuck,


Where does the switch stand come from ?
I had bought a couple from Sunrise, which I found gorgeous, but Sunrise has gone out of business as it seems  ???

Here's the link, they are laser cut wood kits. I loved The Sunrise product line as well. I have a lot of
their station signs and oddities I bought from a local dealer who closed his LHS and sold his inventory
on line, you might google FRESNO MODEL RAILROAD and check out Bill's site, he was primarily an N scale
shop until closing.

FRESNO MODEL RAILROAD
Fresno Model Railroad has been in business for 14 years. Bill & Sharon Randolph have decided to retire. The shop was shut down effective 12-01-2003. ...
www.fresnomodelrailroad.com/ - Cached - Similar

Checked - No switch stands in the inventory, only signals, signs, etc.

I built the loading platform and when painted and weathered will go in El
Centro on the new layout on the siding with the packing plant. Some
what of a team track in front of the depot. Went together pretty easy.
