Well, then you get into the sticky part - "what are they really worth".  I would
HOPE that black/white/red/blue train window frames get pretty cheap in May,
considering there are 7 in a $22 set, I just can't see any sane person valuing them
above $2-2.50 each.  But any other color?  That's a different ball o' wax (or ABS).

I can't wait until May, I'll have enough windows for my 5 car black Metroliner the
first time I find the vans for sale.

Tom.. that's funny cuz I was going to send a message to you about going in on
an order of those Soccer van windows if you get notice of when they're
actually ready, but decided that I'd just get them myself just in case funds
got too light for me to reimburse you right away.

I'm deciding to keep my train windows cuz I have only two yellows and four
blacks in my whole collection. Having only recently gotten into trains, my
supply is small.

Hm, actually, I was offering them to Tom first - I'll let him decide...

Done!

Anybody else have yellow train windows to trade?  I will swap Black, Red,
White or Blue for them straight across.

That's a whole different topic ;-)  I'll be working on a "short" black

I'm nearly done working on my articulated dining car with domes for a • yellow

Tom Stangl,

Does that mean I am now inline for the swap?  I think I actually have 50 or so
black train windows right now.

Tom McDonald,

Would you rather have all one color of window?  I would be glad to swap you
some black ones for your yellow.  I have been attempting to add to my
red/yellow cars, but have been limited by a shortage of yellow windows and
doors.  Your two would help.  :-)  (As would Mr. Stangl's 8)
