This one is described as gorgeous. I submit that it could be made into a nice model, but it would take disassembly and a skilled torch operator. Check out the starting bid - over $700.

Way overpriced with lousy edited cell phone photos that do nothing to help.

Got some GMC/All-Nation in it, too. Lead truck, looks like loco bottom cover.
The green tint...either lousy editing or corrosion?
Sure that's not one of Turners? Tender trucks off the track are a hallmark, are they not?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/O-SCALE-3-BOXC ... 3892453521Same seller, same proud of his junk pricing.
Asking about a hundred with economy shipping at 40.
Makes each one costing about four times the most I ever spent for one of those.
Oh, well.
