Always on my mind....Pardon if I repeat myself.....

Back in 2003 I believe it was: the Montrose train depot hoard

1,508 Western Electric 2012A & C transformers in the drawers! (yes, we counted them) And, as you can see, there were a few odd transformers in there too, like some 24v & 18v models.

I had a 12-yr old kid put them in zip-lock bags of 10 each, then place them into banana boxes (we had a million boxes).

Sold them (mostly on eBay) for $5.00 ea, and they were literally all gone in 1 day.....Guess I shoulda asked more ;-)

I used to buy those at yard sales n flea market do fifty cents each. Then I had way more then I needed and sold them off. For a buck or two each.
