awesome school gala score

this stuff wasnt kept for me. its pure good timing with a little luck thrown in. had i not been there on opening, someone else would have got it. as it was, the weather is what helped, as it kept people away until the rain eased.

it was more than worth it for two, fully functional vintage engines. i would have paid two or three times that for those on their own. bit of a clean, and new tyres on one with some lube and they are good to go. plus the dark blue track and accessories. for $6 plus the dribble of gas used, im not complaining.

i actually found a bag of tomy thomas at a charity shop today with 4 slopes, some basic track and a james for the same price, but less than half the amount of track.

thomas, annie and percy will be parts box material. already have so many, i dont need more, lol. the james from today will be kept, as im not sure i have a working one in the collection and need to check.
