I am looking for the optional tender that Accucraft offered for the Ruby engine. My wife is getting me a Ruby for fathers day, she spilled the beans so I would shut up about trying to hawk stuff to get myself a steamer before the end of summer. I think the tender fits the engine best. Yes I could modify a HLW gondola ect to make a tender, but would rather have the metal tender that was offered. If anybody has one that needs a new home, please let me know and I will see what I can do to afford it. Thanks Mike
Sorry, have a ruby (Mimi) came with the tender. Tried to sell it. No one wanted it. Wife, Mimi through a fit when she found out, I was selling it, which no one wanted it.
In any case, advise if I can send any pixs, dimensions, whatever.
Also have a 32 ford Rdstr. She won’t let me sell.
Hell of a mess I have myself in. Can’t buy anything because I can’t sell anything.

I remember that Bill, I was going to buy it back then, till the wife found out and you ended up keeping it. I definatly don’t have the funds for another live steamer till next year, unless you need some really nice HO scale stuff! I would love to give Mimi a home if you ever do sell it. I have the same issues with my wife not letting me sell stuff sometimes. Mike
Every time I send something off in the mail, my mom asks questions. She asks if I am selling my trains because I need money, no. She asks if I am getting rid of my trains, no, just trading for what I want. And she asks other questions. I think it bothers her that I am selling and trading my stuff, because she doesn’t understand that I have a lot of stuff that I am not using and will not use.
Mike, don’t get excited, Mimisaid it could go if I got enough Stuff , HO, to do something for one of the great grandsons. (3 on the ground) 2 in the hanger.
If it is really good [email protected].
Mimi is a hard bargainer. So I doubt it.
FYI We will be through Indiana on our MoHo trip this summer.
Nappanee, about a week. Live in Tejas.
Been awhile since I was in Nappanee I have a PFM/United brass B&O 2-8-0 that has PFM sound installed, constant lighting and nicely painted and weathered for the previous owners home road. Original box included. Also have a PFM sound console/throttle in its original box in like new condition. Then I have a Trains INC brass Alco S2 painted for a small industrial railroad up in MN. Its been remotored with a can motor and has its original box. Rest of the HO is long gone. Mike
Sounds like, what u have is way to nice for me to use on a throw together 4 X 8 layout. For a very interested 5yr old.
Napanee is where our Moho was built, take it for some work beyond my skill level. Besides we love the atmosphere, cheese, a visit to Dusenberg in auburn.
Will pass this on to Mimi & look the engines up for her.
T, (Mimi) agreed, what u have, brass, very nice. Not for a 5 yr old. No matter how enthused he is now.
When he is 8 he will toss it across the room.
With that, enjoy your summer, after Nappinee, we will wander up into mi. Upper P.
