The 2303 (NYMX Refrigerator)...
Interesting that after being apparently unseen (at least to your humble list-owner), there seem to be 2303b variations coming out of the woodwork. As you may know, I picked up a copy on that Internet

Re: The 2303 (NYMX Refrigerator)...
I stayed out of the bidding on that car as well. I only need one, which I already won. If I come across more at swap meets, I will pick them up for resale here to the members who need them. Just

Re: Progress on my "accumulation"
After making a post earlier, I noticed differences in the two 2312 Bakelite Plastics cars I have, outside of the hole in the roof of one car. The differences are noticeable. One car is lettered UCPX

Hello, I've been reading some of the discussion from the accumulators and thought I'd go below and look in some of my old boxes. I'd asked George about the 5" boxed cars earlier. I've quite a few of
