Alco Fan-- New Camera with 7.1 mega pixels- the older videos are 3.1 Camera story-- Dropped my old one at work into the sand silo which had standing water at bottom where the gates were. The camera i have now--bought it for my mom for a christmas present in 07 -- she hit the front while lens was extended on a door - sent it off to get repaired -she didn't want to repair--kept camera-when i told her what happened to mine--she gave it back as my dad bought her a new one. i got camera fixed for $55.00- cheaper than a new one

Thanks Microbusss. Finding a Mint Maxwell House may be challenging and possibly pricey as they are hard to find in mint to Excellent condition. I think i gave over $25+ more than a year ago on ebay for the one i have

Cheez Thanks Pal!! I have a better camera for one and the sun was setting which helped. It is rare i think to see shiney old Tyco trains as most have bee n played with or worn and nothing wrong with that. It is just hard to find mint condition Tyco especially the Chrome tank cars and Silver Streaks of which i now own over 10 mint never touched - no finger smudges or anything and i was amazed when i recieved those 10 locos in that condition.
