NYOW1- paper baggage tags $5
NYOW2- steel phone pole tag $15
NYOW3A- company issued Grade Profile chart & station listing, with one tear on bottom. 
NYOW3B- company issued route map. Combined. $10 
NYOW4A&B- newspaper article on shutdown, two sheets. $20
NYOW5A through E- five 1941 issues of The Observer. $40
NYOW6- 1991 issue of the Historical Society Observer. $5
NYOW7- passenger timetable from 1918, somewhat yellowed & fragile. $30
NYOW8A through D – four cardstock running slips, tank car placard, cancelled stock certificate. $20
NYOW9A through C – N.Y.O.&W.R.R. semaphore lamp by DRESSEL RAILWAY LAMP WORKS (earlier marking) complete with fuel pot, older Flat Black paint job. $190
NYOW10A through E – N.Y.O.&W.R.R. single lens marker light for bobber cabooses. No manufacturer shown. I’ve never seen another. Older Flat Black paint job. The cookie cutter chimney top is an indication of how primitive it is. Fuel pot fits but might not be the correct one.  You and your fellow members would know when the company name switched from RR to RY in order to date these lamps. I’m guessing late 19th century. $380   
NYOW11A&B- NYO&W steel switch lock with NYO&W key that is the correct time period for the lock, dated 1952 beneath keyway cover. $135 This is not unrealistic. Keys nowadays are often bringing at least $100.
NYO&W12- NYO&W RY steel switch lock patent dated 1920 on back with NYO&W RY key that is the correct time period for this lock. Older and more desirable. $180

More than a century old and in my collection for nearly 30 of those years, are these three milk cans from the Delhi Branch of the O&W. Left right, 4D Colchester, 11D Delancey, and 12D Clanceys, not on list, with 13D Frasers lid. 12D must have been eliminated when this list was established, and either the farm went out of business, or its business was too small for the stop and combined with 13D. They are for sale as a group, and not separate. They have been clear coated and free of active rust. Two can be opened and have been coated inside with rust mort and are suitable for storage. They are solid with no thousand points of light and have wonderful information like farmers names stamped into them. I’m asking a firm $950.

Models By Blake Tatar

I have been building and painting model trains for 40 years. I have a strong mechanical background so I am able to get most locomotives running extremely well. I work predominantly in HO scale but I also do some N scale. I work mostly with steam locomotives and rolling stock. I have done extensive modifications, repairs and scratchbuilding. I can install new motors and gearboxes and even fabricate missing parts in some cases. My turn around time varies as this is not my full time work and life is unpredictable. I stand by my work. If I do a job and there is a problem I will repair it free of charge.
