    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    :D Sure would be nice if some of you guys could come & get some of the Mountains, Valleys, Big Bridges & stuff when I start taking the train tables apart. I just hate to destroy all of these things. Someone could find an area to integrate them into their layouts.:rolleyes::):D;):p

    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    No Withdrawal. I've got something else waiting for me when all of these trains are gone. My shop will be bare. I'm going to be building another Orange harvesting machine for a big company here in town for a real good salary. He found out I was selling all my trains & would have an empty building...

    Remotoring Athearns

    I've used Kato, Stewart & Bachmann Spectrum motors in Athearn engines before. I just mounted them w/clear Silicone. I see how to level the motor in the frame & if it needs some shims in the frame I add small washers under the motor wherever is needed w/superglue & then I set the motor...

    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    I kinda hate to break your Bubble, but so far I've sold about a Thousand dollars worth of stuff which includes all of my freight rolling stock & I haven't even made a dent in what I've got left that I haven't even put up on the forum yet. I think I know how to take up track on a layout since...

    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    I had Back surgery 2 yrs. ago & all the pain went away until about 3 weeks ago. I was laying under the layout on my Chariot & the old back went out. Stayed in bed for about 3 days & now I'm back on pain-pills every morning. My legs have really been giving me a fit everyday & my feet are even...

    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    When I start taking all of the tables apart I am going to try to save the big valleys & bridges in one piece, also the lake by the WM Dist. center. Then I will put them up for sale as a seperate item. The only problem is I can't ship them, you would have to come & pick them up. I'll post those...

    Larry's MRR Empire Vol.#5

    No Rico, All the train stuff is going out the door. I made up my mind that when it was sold I would never have an interest in MRR again. I've spent way to much money the past 10 yrs. & now I need to recuperate what I've spent. Starting tomorrow I'm going thru all of the boxes of stuff that I...

    Putting out a A.P.B.

    If we worried about spelling in every post we wouldn't ever post anything. I was the best speller in school from the 1st thru the 12th grade & all my friends always remembered that. If I saw them in a crowd, they would say, "here's the best speller in all of our years in school. Well, I got a...

    Prestage Tool & Gear

    When I bought from Calif. Models about 1975 those kits were cheap. LOL I had in the Matboard kits the #71,74,82,87,88,563 & the Metal buildings #22 w/3 of them connected together. On my metal bldg. I framed up the windows w/1/8th balsa so they were inset. Then I added a loading dock floor...

    Prestage Tool & Gear

    That must have been way back because I've never seen any of those kits by that company. I'm not doubting you, I just have never seen any other than Calif. Models. Thanks for the Info though, I might start looking again. Thanks.:D

    Prestage Tool & Gear

    All of those Metal buildings were originally made by California Models. I made about 6 of their buildings back in the early 70's & soldered all of them together. I also had 5 of their Cardboard(heavy mat)buildings. The one I can remember the most was the Furniture warehouse made out of Cardboard...
