Just an FYI, the local shop(Zionsville Train Depot)has a collection of Delton rolling stock including some narrow gauge tank cars that are mostly brass. Just trying to help out the owner/friend, the more he sells the more collections he can get in the shop. He also gets all the other brands of large scale in these collections. I know there is a beater USA Conrail GP9 that needs most of the hand rails and a few body detail parts, a one of 12 known to exhist special LGB 2018D mogul in DRGW colors w/box and an LGB/Aster shay with Phoniex sound. No interest in them on my end, just passing along the info. Mike
Does he have a web site ?
He does, but little to none of the Delton is on it. He is a bit overwhelmed, best is to call the number from his site. Didnt know if it was ok to link it, so I figured those that where interested could google search it. Mike

Steve I know how to use it … the point was if your going to post something like that include the info…
Sorry Scott, didnt know if posting a link to his website was allowed. This shop is the reborn Watts Train Shop, much smaller. Owned by former Watts Employee Rick Whitt and retaining Watts repair technihian Ross B. Rick is slowly rebuilding from the ashes that was Watts Train Shop. Excellent prices and sells estates/collections on consignment. He really needs a fresh collection or 2 of large scale trains if anybody is looking at downsizing. No interest other than wanting my local source of large scale trains to survive. Mike
Thank You for this great info!
Your very welcome. And I will repeat for everybody, DO NOT go by the inventory on the website please, its out of date and only a fraction of what he has. And unlike Watts, Rick has all scales. There is pre/postwar and modern era Lionel, some 2 rail O scale including flex track, Some really nice hand made wood buildings in G, several buildings in O scale, a mix of LGB trains, 3 Bachmann steamers, a mogul and a 4-4-0 and a Paul Bunion porter. He also has Playmobile for those who have kids that enjoy that toy, its on blow out special. He also stocks the Thomas the Tank Engine trains and Chuggington trains. Mike
