$3 cars

Ralph

Remember...it's for fun!
Nice buys! Usually at the flea markets I attend rolling stock with magnetic couplers is more in the $5-8.00 range. You scored!!!

even if you do not like cars you got cheap couplers. but those are nice buys.
i enjoy shopping at the shows for jsut that reason, you can find some good deals if you look.
cars for a few dollars, locomotives deals are to be had if you really look.
so far i have not had any troubles with my show purchases

Yep, The Rock car is Athearn, as for the SNC car, If MDC put a plastic underframe on that type car, you may be right.
I think the Rio Grand car has a Detals West #182 50' Hydra-cushion under frame kit installed.

The P2K kit that some of the cars are sitting on in the photos was another $3 car. When I took it out of the box to assemble it I found some Extra paperwork and dry transfers.
It turns out it is a 1996 Lap of Luxury NMRA convention car. I assembled the kit but haven't put the dry transfers on yet.
