12 old (new old stock according to ad) Atlas freight cars (11 + 1 Bachmann), $250...doesn't even say vintage: http://www.ebay.com/itm/N-Scale-Train-Lot-of-12/292217502363?hash=item4409853a9b:g:rJ0AAOSwo4pYksmw
They have a dart board. It is covered with silly dollar amounts. They close their eyes, toss a dart and where it lands is what they want for it.

Not when another seller has the same item available for only $125: http://www.ebay.com/itm/smoothside-passenger-car-set-kato-106-1301-/112497307646
While it's possible the engine is Kato, I'm somewhat skeptical given the Rapido coupler on the rear (and lack on front). It's also definitely not at FREIGHT train set, and half the cars are CP Rail! That price is a bit high for this collection (but not so bad as some of the other stuff on here...) http://www.ebay.com/itm/KATO-Gray-N...379725?hash=item3af455ff0d:g:Mp4AAOSwi~5Zy6lO
I'm not sure about this one: it looks suspiciously like the plastic (non-brass) version of the Bi-polar, but says it runs. I wonder what chassis the shell is mounted on? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Milwaukee-...553981?hash=item1c949011bd:g:xLoAAOSwj~dZ33Gm
Yeah, it looks like it's probably a plastic shell on an old Arnold GG1 chassis; not a bad way to do a Bi-Polar, I guess. The only plastic-shell Bi-Polar I've heard of is the display model by Del Prado (who did other models, such as an ML4000, which I hope to someday throw on an SD40 chassis).
Yep. I looked after I asked. I ain't interested at all but some poor sap will pay to much for this. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Yes. Fourteen axles. But not all powered. They were 2-b-d+d-b-2, or however the goofy "Whyte" system classification named them. Class "EP-2". (P= "PASSENGER".) Numbers E1 through E5, originally 10250 through 10254.
I knew the EP/EF difference. My memory had forgotten the wheel arrangement. I just knew tho there were some 8 wheel arrangements tho. It would be awesome if someone actually built this. But it's to road specific I think. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Hallmark made these back over 35 years ago. Yes. N Scale! They are few and $$$. I had one, sold it to my friend Kirk Reddie. No actual eight wheel arrangements. This might help somewhat, but beware WP can have an error or two... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milwaukee_Road_class_EP-1,_EF-1,_EF-2,_EF-3,_and_EF-5
There was someone at some point who had been using the Arnold GG1 chassis to make Little Joes. It was a very involved project, thought, that involved turning down the wheel flanges, among other modifications. In this case, I don't really think that either the shell, or the chassis, or both combined truly equal the value of what it is being bid for.
