Found a Locomotive!
(the audio guys will open this thread to see what kind of train I found, and how it got hidden in the first place!)
I went through a period of a coupla years where I was buying a lot of radios and TV sets, mostly from this woman with a junque shop (more of a junque pile.) As time passed I ran out of room, and her prices got higher. (also she had fewer good finds) I hadn't been to her place in probably a year. Well, today we drove by there on the way to Valentine's dinner, and I spotted a small TV right near the road. I fought the urge to do a U-turn, telling myself that if it was still there when we got back I would stop in. Well, it was there. The cabinet has some issues (scratches and some breaks at the top, including a piece of missing grillework) and the 10BP4 tests weak, but not dead. But, it is my first "Locomotive", a set I kinda wanted. And this was a cheap and easy way to get it. Took me all of 5 minutes to buy it and load it up; the price? The cheapskate sniffed one out again. Ten bucks.
