LOL - you have MY attention!
Let me also add, if I may (with respect to your wishes)... that I think you might know what I would be interested in (lol I've talkd about it enough), and I'm sure we can come to fair agreements.
I reached a peak of collecting in another venue a few years ago myself... eventually, once you "have it all"... it's time to move on, eh?
Thanks for your generosity in thinking of us first. I was planning to do the same once I inspect a lot that should be waiting for me at home. I eagerly anticipate your website...

Once you get your list together and a price, let me know. I would be interested in buying the collection as a whole.

Wow, this is sweet and sour news. Good news is that I'm putting together a shopping list, bad news is I'm afraid we might lose your presence here. Even though I don't often post, I do eventually get around to reading everything. I've enjoyed your work here, you are a great contributor. You write very well also.
Onto the list, I feel like a kid in the candy store. I appreciate you giving me first dibs on the Sohio tanker but I'm afraid that the price will be too rich for my blood. I know what you just paid for that. At this point in my collecting I would feel better getting 5 nice cars for that kind of money. I still have a ton of collecting to do.
I am in no way trying to rush you at all with this next question. I'm going to a train show on November 11th, I've allotted $100 towards that show. Any chance you might list some before that?

Not a problem, I know to spend my money at the train show and then find more for you [:D]
I picked up a Sohio tanker tonight on Ebay. I'll see what the real condition is when it gets here. Regardless of the condition I picked up a nice lot and feel I couldn't have gone wrong for the money.

I thought of selling all of my trains once. I was going to get rid of trains except for 2-3 centimental items. I'm gald I didn't get rid of my collection, which probably wouldn't impress anyone, as they are my fun and my relaxation. I once had a fellow, who retired and went back to school to be a minister, tell me that he sold his stuff once and wished he had it back, That was before he became a minister. I think he's to busy for trains now. I have the same thing happen to me when I'm taking classes. I know I'll never collect an impressive collection but I enjoy the hunt and my things.
Good Luck TOR,
Alco Fan
