Railroad Dining Car China


We offer a collection of railroad collectables that have been carefully selected for authenticity.  Our interest is railroad relics – unless the items actually came from a railway, we don't stock them.

All items are railroad marked (top, bottom or both), unless clearly stated.  Marked items are the best values in the long run.   We do, however, consider patterns such as "Winged Streamliner", "Golden Rocket", or "Hill", which are often marked only with a recognizable logo, to be top marked.

                  patterns on Shenango Staffordshire ware. Calling this pattern "Staffordshire" would be about as sensible as calling all
