Quite the contrary, Plushy... I'm delighted to report that http://www.oldcmp.net is just now up & running happily on my server, finally its own entity again.

Not that I am into buses, but the AEC, Route 69 City, in the shed, looks to be ripe for restoration.

Great place Plushy,

Reminds me of a few huge yards I explored as a kid.. all now part of the great furnace...

Trouble is; A scrapmetal merchant just sees the $$$$.

Like every great tin farm, they are getting rarer by the week. I wonder if this one will make it another few years before its owner see the potential of quick cash vs keen and avid collectors.

Ye all take note..

What's the story Plushy, is anything for sale? Or is the owner going to fix up each & every item there one day?

From what i have been told everything is for sale although a lot of the car panels have rusted too bad for restoration . I have the guys number but havent had a chance to ring him yet . The Trucks dont look like thery have suffered as bad as the cars but until someone has a look you dont know how bad the rust has got em .

Cheers Plushy
