Could you be a bit more descriptive?

Gene,

These are a six passenger car set in the boxes.  HO scale, series one. I've had them since the mid eighties and have never had them on a track.  Item # 43-1290.  They are maroon in color with Norfolk and Western on them.  I hope this helps, and I appreciate any help you can give.

The fact is, very few plastic HO models gain any value over time. One can now get much better-running, better-looking, and more accurate models at any hobby shop, so these models do not have much value in them. If this set is typical Bachmann 1980's work, you could get maybe $30 tops for all six.
