I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING GOLD MINING MEMORABILIA AND EQUIPMENT FOR OVER 40 YEARS. I RECENTLY COMPLETED A MINING DISPLAY ON MY PROPERTY, AND I WILL BE SELLING ALL THE ITEMS THAT WOULD NOT FIT IN MY DISPLAY. I WILL BE LISTING A WIDE VARIETY OF MINING EQUIPMENT. THE FOLLOWING ARE SOME OF THE ITEMS I WILL BE SELLING: ORE SKIPS, ORE CAR, HYDRAULIC MONITORS, MINE RAIL FROGS AND SWITCHES, HEADFRAME WHEELS, ASSAY OFFICE ORE GRINDER, ORE CAR AND PARK TRAIN WHEELS AND AXLES, HUGE CARBIDE GAS GENERATOR, COMPRESSED AIR DRILLS AND BITS, TRAM CAR, ORE BUCKET, ORE BIN WHEEL, AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS GOLD MINING EQUIPMENT . INCLUDED WILL BE A FULLY OPERATIONAL GAS POWERED MINING LOCOMOTIVE. DUE TO THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF MOST OF THE ITEMS, THEY WILL BE LOCAL PICKUP ONLY. I LIVE IN ALTURAS, CA., APPROXIMATELY A THREE HOUR DRIVE TO THE FOLLOWING LARGER NEARBY COMMUNITIES: RENO, NV; REDDING, CA; AND MEDFORD, OR. I HAVE A 3/4 TON PICKUP AND SMALL TRAILER. I WOULD CONSIDER DELIVERING A LOAD OF ITEMS WITHIN A 400 MILE RADIUS IF THE BUYER MADE ME A REASONABLE OFFER FOR MY TIME AND GAS. I CAN STORE THE ITEMS FOR UP TO 60 DAYS, BUT PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WHEN THE AUCTION CLOSES. I HOPE TO GET ALL THE LARGER MINING ITEMS LISTED WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY, AUGUST 13TH & 14TH. THESE WILL BE TEN DAY LISTINGS. IT ISN'T VERY OFTEN SUCH A LARGE AMOUNT OF UNUSUAL AND RARE MINING EQUIPMENT COMES UP FOR SALE. DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PIECE OF THE HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN WEST!! THESE WILL BE NO RESERVE AUCTIONS. IF YOU NEED ADDITIONAL PHOTOS PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH YOUR REQUESTS. YOU ARE WELCOME TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS WITH ME TO INSPECT ITEMS YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BIDDING ON PRIOR TO THE AUCTION CLOSING DATE. "BUY IT NOW" OFFERS (HIGHER THAN THE STARTING PRICE) WILL BE CONSIDERED ON THE MINING EQUIPMENT, AND IF ACCEPTED, THE AUCTION FOR THAT PARTICULAR ITEM WILL BE ENDED EARLY. PLEASE EXAMINE THE PHOTOS CAREFULLY. I HAVE DONE MY BEST TO DESCRIBE THE ITEM. I COLLECT A LOT OF ITEMS BUT I DON'T PRETEND TO BE AN EXPERT ON ANY OF THEM. PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. THIS LISTING IS FOR A COMPLETE MINING RAIL FROG AND SWITCH SET UP AS 12" GAUGE. THE RAIL IS 1 1/2" HIGH WHICH INDICATES IT IS PROBABLY AROUND EIGHT POUND RAIL (RAIL IS CLASSIFIED IN MEASUREMENTS OF YARDS SO THREE FEET OF THIS RAIL WOULD WEIGH 8 POUNDS) . THE COMPLETE SWITCH IS 8' 8" LONG. THE SWITCH ITSELF IS IN WORKING ORDER. T ARE TWO SECTIONS OF THE RAIL AT THE END THAT ARE RUSTED THROUGH (SEE PHOTO #6). THIS SWITCH DIVERTS TRAFFIC ONTO A CURVE. NEXT I WILL BE LISTING A SWITCH THAT DIVERTS TRAFFIC IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION. THE FROG (SEE PHOTO #2) WILL ALLOW A 5/8" ORE CAR WHEEL FLANGE TO PASS THROUGH. THIS WOULD WORK FOR ALMOST ALL ORE CARS.
