Unless otherwise stated all items are in good condition and, in the case of locomotives, in good running condition. Locomotives are also checked before shipping. Those items with a letter B at the end of the description are in their original boxes. All prices are shown in Canadian $. Postage, packing and insurance is extra at cost.


Payment can be made in cash, by Canadian cheques, Canadian money orders, Interac e-transfer, US cheques, US international money orders, bank drafts and . In the case of PayPal you do not need to be a member as you can pay with most credit cards at no additional cost. Interac e-transfer is preferred for Canadian residents. PayPal payment is preferred using the friends and family option for all other residents.

You can avoid postage charges by collecting prepaid purchases from my home in Ottawa. (6 Trevor Crescent, Nepean in Lynwood Village, Bells Corners; phone number: 613-829-1377). From time to time arrangements can be made to drop items off prepaid purchases in Toronto, the Orillia/Barrie/Midland area, and, less frequently, Victoria (BC).

If you see items that you wish to purchase then to contact me, Dave Venables, .

Please provide the item numbers so that they can be set aside for you and payment and delivery arrangments established. I would be pleased to provide additional information on any item to help with your purchasing decisions. You can also contact me to arrange to view items at a mutually agreeable time.
