Amherst Train Show Haul, January 27-28, 2024

[@johnknippenberg-LandmarkYards]

Awseome haul, DB! The Menards USMC boxcar is sweet. Thanks for showing the 2034, I've been looking for a Lionel postwar or older Columbia without the plastic encased motor. Cool handcart too.

[@dbtech7914]

I had to get the box car and I thought I had to save the 2034. It's going to be a project. I need to make another track for my bump and go pieces. I also have a trolley and a maintenance car.

@@dbtech7914 They're fun to mess around with. 😎👍

[@BoxcarJerry]

Hey David great haul man , you did some good wheeling and dealing. The USMC box car is a beauty

[@dbtech7914]

Thanks Jerry. It's all about the search and getting a good deal. I like the USMC box car. Looks really good.

o o o o o o Conrail GP-38.. Sweet very cool to hang out with you for the weekend, Will we see you next year at the show again

[@dbtech7914]

It was a great time hanging out with you. Thanks for organizing the Meet & Greet. We'll see about next year if it works out. It was worth the trip for two days.

[@RonMontagueSWRR]

Great haul Dave. I'm glad you came too. I had a great time and planned to be there next year.

[@dbtech7914]

Great to see you Ron. I hope I can make it next year (and find some more bargains!).

[@RonMontagueSWRR]

@@dbtech7914 same here 👍🏾

[@jub856]

Love the Marine box car.

[@dbtech7914]

I knew you would! Looks pretty sharp.

[@thomasgrassi8817]

Dave Great days and nice haul at the show.

[@dbtech7914]

Thanks, and it was a good time.

[@kensbackshop6399]

The conrail diesel is a athearn

[@dbtech7914]

Yes, thanks for watching. I hope I can find side covers for it.

[@DelHudson1]

Nice haul. I'll make it to that show one day.

[@dbtech7914]

You'll spend a lot of money! I wasn't going to go, but it turned out that I was able to get there. I wasn't disapointed.

[@derekalexander4030]

DB Tech… Dave Bargain Tech. Way to bargain and come out on top. Great haul.

[@dbtech7914]

You know it! The free trains were a great deal too. I got the Tyco and the Athern Conrail to run. I still have a couple projects in the box including the Lionel.

[@PapaMav]

You see Big Al Mayo there?

[@dbtech7914]

Who is Big Al Mayo?

[@mercuryoak2]

Wow I'm glad you had a good time at the train show and you made out like a bandit that's awesome. I didn't make it this year but it's okay not a big deal I know there's another one coming up febuary 25th at an elks club in Worcester Mass so I'm looking forward to going to it. I also saw in my railroader there's one in Allentown coming up soon. I would just have to save up and take care of a few other things before I venture out for something like that. Got to love the freebies. That Atlantic looks similar to the one i have. I hope you got to see a lot being its 4 buildings basically you cover two buildings a day play usually the last day you get bargains which is what I ran into. What are the dealers that I deal with was at a Marlborough Massachusetts chainsaw and I bought from him that Athearn blue box New Haven f7 AB set. Good buys

[@dbtech7914]

I'll catch up with you at a show sooner or later. Allentown is always a good one. You would like it if you can make it.

[@mercuryoak2]

@@dbtech7914 yeah idk if I could make it. My car can do fine being it's a VW diesel and gets long distances between fill ups just timing etc

[@MattKonsol]

Really nice train haul you got at Amherst! Im sure the lionel 2034 and some of the ho stuff are going to be fun projects i would say?

[@dbtech7914]

Thanks Matt. Plenty of stuff to keep me busy.

[@historyotaku]

The Atlantic you bought was made by Aristocraft. Be careful as Aristocrafts are infamous for suffering from Mazac rot.

[@dbtech7914]

Never heard of Aristocraft. I looked at it pretty good and I didn't see any rot. I'll have to do a video when I get a chance to take it apart.

[@dbtech7914]
