Vintage High Iron Co HICO #759 I Rode Behind Locomotive Round Green Pin 2" Diameter -- 

In 1967 a commodities broker from New York named Ross E. Rowland made a deal that would return No. 759 to service for steam powered fan trips hosted by Rowland's High Iron Company (HICO). No. 759 was chosen for restoration, since Rowland had previously operated Canadian Pacific 4-6-2 locomotives 1238, 1286, and another one of Blount's locomotives, 1278, and they didn't meet enough expectations to pull his longer excursion trains, unassisted. No. 759 was taken to the Norfolk and Western Railroad's former Nickel Plate roundhouse in Conneaut, Ohio, the same place No. 759 was last serviced. After a short restoration and subsequent testing, No. 759 pulled its first excursion for the High Iron Company on August 30, 1968 when she pulled a 15 car excursion to Buffalo, New York.

USA SELLERS. 


I accept PayPal. I also combine shipping on multiple orders. I can oftentimes combine shipping for one low price- as long as the items won are similar in size, etc. For instance, if you win a group of 5 cards in 5 separate auctions, I should be able to group them all together in one padded envelope for a low shipping price. Be sure to let me know if you think combined shipping makes sense for your order. Also, when paying for multiple winnings, please pay with one combined payment.
