On this website you will find an assortment of material for sale (china, silverware, and souvenir items) from the transportation sector. Our focus is buying and selling items from the Pacific Coast Region of North America, however not everything for sale on this site is from that region.
The site is organized by transportation category (airline, steamship, railroad, restaurant and the navy). Simply click on the link for the transportation sector that is of interest to you. All the items that we have in stock will appear in alphabetical order by company name or government department. Scroll down the list until you find the company of interest. If we have anything for that company it will be listed. The price for each item is included in the item description as is the shipping price to US destinations.
This catalogue is updated monthly with any new stock. All items for sale are in previously used condition and the pricing is fixed. The book "Pacific Coast Ship China" is also available for sale on this site under the book link.
