Figured id snap a few photos of the athearn "salvage yard" i got growing here.


So heres a lil bit of it. More in the basement and in the tubs ect... alot of what ya see will come back from the dead!!!

Since i havent been able to start building my benchwork due to the room its going in needs to be redon which wont be till later this spring. So in the mean time i just enjoy rebuilding athearn engines, ect... theres a few atlas, walthers, RPP & bachmann thrown in the mix also.

(im sure ya can see im a diecast car collector. mostly mustang stuff hence my screen name) Theres TONS more hidden in the basement.

enjoy.

I used to get a lot. Now I just take them all to a recycling place. I keep swearing I don't do it as a business, hard to say that with a van full of tvs and computers.

Have fun rebuilding the engines. Get working, someone needs to compete with Jerome
