R1 Points and Plastic Wheelsets

For Sale/Trade/Wanted
#1

I have 5 sets of LGB R1 switches that I don’t need and am hoping to pass along to someone who will actually use them. There are 3 LH pieces and 2 RH pieces. They are in varying degrees of use (including brand new). If someone expresses interest I will post photos (I have yet to take shots).

In addition, I have 8 axles of plastic wheelsets. They are 30mm diameter and well-used by other modelers. Please note that these are wheels ONLY; not complete trucks. Again, photos can be posted if someone wants them.

Please make an offer on any one or multiple pieces. Shipping or local pick up can be arranged. (Larger purchases will receive a discount on shipping cost.) DM me or reply to this thread!

Note that it takes 2LH and 2RH to make a Timesaver Jr.

This is a great start for a switching puzzle using 2 axle cars.

That’s fair. I know some use them for scenery in modular layouts. Since Im outside that wont do for me haha

I threw away a giant bag of them, no scenery as of yet on my layout just track and plants.

They sure seem to attract junk and also put junk on the rails… got a feeling of evil glee throwing them away…

Do you have the same feeling when you throw boxes away …(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)

Yes, I remember a certain contingent here burning or shooting or discarding LGB boxes!

I threw out all my boxes for rolling stock except one each of every locomotive type, for shipping.

Still way too many boxes! I was renting a storage container at $60 a month just to hold the stupid boxes!!
