Received this used Kato Kumoha 11/Kuha 16. Not sure what "used" actually means, but it had not been run before. Wheels don't show any use. And, it took some voltage to get going, so it had been sitting for a while. Once running, it runs very well. Bonus is no traction tires. Not really meant to pull anything although there is a 2 car add on set for sale.

The result of drunk buying. :P

"Used" generally means previously owned by a retail consumer. Over the years, I've bought a lot of previously owned, unused model trains.
 
I ordered a pair of Atlas RSD4/5s from our friends at Lombards. They are factory equipped with the latest version of Loksound decoders. I hope they run well, they're pretty small to be putting a decoder and speaker in. Originally, when Atlas was re-releasing their stuff in their Classic line and upgraded them to be DCC-ready, they didn't upgrade these or the RS3, because they were too small for a decoder to fit.
Pictures when they are delivered...

The shop that I buy from grades each model and if it still has all the optional parts, never installed like NOS, the get an A. A- may have a box that has some damage. Pretty good so far. I haven't been let down yet.
 
I wanted to fill out my operating scheme, so I ordered a second Bachman 50’ center beam flat. Now I can have a daily arrival at the lumber yard.

Also realized that I don’t have aggregate hoppers for the unloading facility, so I ordered two suitable Walthers cars. They’re available for CR in two different road numbers.

Finally, I pre-ordered the Rapido New Look transit bus in TTC livery. Closet Canadian indeed.

Kato N scale OHA 35 and 33. Saw these at the used store for pretty cheap. I have the HO scale stuff so wanted the mini me's. I bought all that they had, 2 OHA 35 and 1 OHA 33 and will be stalking the site for more.
