Geeze. I over slept again.
Guess I needed it.

Happy New Year Cabers!
2019!

Let's see what relics you have found from the past week.
Whether, it be bike related or not.
Please, include pictures as we do love pictures!

Good Morning JD. Notany bikes but a few old games added to my garage wall.

No yard sales at this time of the year and every Saturday and Sunday has been miserable for quite so time so no flea markets and no one is thinking bikes. (Yesterday rain and fog, today clear but winds 10-15 with gusts to 40 mph) It's been wicked winds or downpours for what seems like an enternite

But there was a good indoor model train show and I picked up a couple of things.

The Sante Fe A-B locomotive set is from about 1954. It’s big and heavy. It’s also quite long as each of the 4 different passenger cars are about 16”.

It’s an iconic set that almost every kid at the time wanted and here we are 60 years later and still runs great. Cars are aluminum and light up.

I have no idea why there are 2 of the same image

Also found some additional F & F plastic cars that were included in cereal boxes in the 1950’s.

I had two Facebook Marketplace ads pop up local this week that I had to grab. One 50s Roadmaster with a nifty prewar Schwinn doodad, and one prewar Schwinn with a bunch of 50s doodads.

Always felt the Santa Fe "War Bonnet" paint scheme was the envy of the industry, it's continued on Warrens BNSF but colors are well...…….

I picked up this 1985 Mercian frame-set and build it with a mid 80s Shimano 600 group I was gifted.

I picked up a second NOS Campagnolo aero water bottle so now I have a pair. Maybe I need to build a Campagnolo C Record equipped bike around the water bottles
