Train doors tend to go for $2-5 each for the plain-colored ones, printed ones
can go MUCH higher. Train windows are going to be really cheap in a few months
with the soccer vans coming out with red/blu/black/white windows. The glass,
however, will still be in high demand, since the vans come with plain glass, and
the last set to have train glass is the 5542.
I'm going to throw a 5542 or 3 up on Ebay without the doors/windows and see how
it/they do. I'd prefer to get $25-28 each for them, but we'll see. I have
already sold 2 at $25ea locally.
