Having donated considerable amounts of used LGB track, the response was “It won’t sell because the ties and rail sides have been sprayed with Rustoleum’s Rusty Brown plastic compatible spray.”
The track is in A-1 condition. I have sprayed all the track on our layout using the same product and gotten accolades for the looks on the layout.
The track is a mix of 1600, 1500, curves and assorted length of straights to 4’ length. The switches are 1600s motorized.
Question:
Considering the condition is excellent, does the coloration of the ties and rail sides mean a No Sale or a very limited effort in pricing. The concern is “We’d be lucky to get any money for it at the train swap meet.”
Your opinion?
Thanks,
Wendell
