Poll Question:
Guys,
Do any of you remember the old Model Railroader section "One Man's Collection"?? They used
to add into the magazines? I know its been awhile ago.....(I'm not even sure of the time
they stopped....)
I have alot of MR's from 1934 to 1968, then it skips from '68 to '72, and I then have right
up 1987 I do believe! Needless to say, I have a bunch of old MR magazines.....Mixed lots
from the 1990's and even into the 2000's....
So, you ask, why this posting in this area of the forums? Well thats what I'm going to
begin.....
Its going to be, my collection, a picture of each item I have.....SO, with that said, TYCO
forms own "One man's collection!" 
Now, don't get me wrong, I'd like to see others do the same, whether you have a TON or a
little.... its not the amount but a place to add the collection we all "prize"!!!!!
So, I'll begin, with my collection, the B&O starting out, graduating all the way to the
present day CSX.
Steam first, followed by diesel.
With this, I'll add pictures as the B&O railroad classification of there steam right up to
the diesels they bought, that I have modeled in my collection.

To everyone thats made a vote. THANK YOU!
I'd LOVE to see this brought back to Model Railroader but..... if nothing else to get our administration to give it a thought, or a try would be nice!
Anyone's thoughts on this please make a posting to it!

I think It'd be great...another place to show stuff and work we've done....we could watch each others' layouts or collections grow....
