4 photos. One shows a gon and the nose of an engine, the other three, well, you decide.
Unbelievable.
What's a "topper car"?

Re: Bad photos of the week award.
If the cat(?) is pictured, is it for sale with the trains?

I looked carefully. The description is as bad as the photos. NO PLACE does it say the standard evilbait disclaimer that tells you to look carefully, as what you see is what you get. So you'd get an argument on the cat.
Just says "as-is".
The 6032 gondola is a Scout, plastic sideframes, with added knuckle couplers.
The engine, if the stated number is correct, is 1978-1981, so "vintage" doesn't count.
Usually not worth the effort.
As-Is makes you worry. Cost of repair exceeds price listed.

Good! Gives you a chance on not getting the cat!

I think it's a dog. Pretty big for a cat. In the one photo where the pet is in focus it looks like it might be a labradoodle or possibly a goldendoodle.
Once I built a railroad, I made it run,
Made it race against time.

Brother, can you spare a dime?

Martin will be sad. I think he wanted that cat.
So, I guess, inadvertently, Martin agreed those are really bad photos.

Yes, bad photos. I'm still not sure that's a dog.
