I have been on vacation this past week in Missouri, and Oklahoma, and did a lot of flea marketing and such. I picked all kinds of great stuff. H.O. Trains, N scale trains, slot cars, G.I. Joe, gas powered airplane, view master reels, comic books and other stuff, very full car on the way home.

Here is a link if you want to see the other stuff. I did not have any N scale stuff till this trip, now I have the trains, but no track or power source. I will have to take a coupon to hobby lobby.

Thanks for looking.

Looks like you made out, Russell. NOT married, right? LOL. Great stuff, love the old slot cars, I am into that as well. Congrats on the acquistions you made. Can't see any losers there.

Actually happily married, there was 3 of us in the car with our luggage and then all the stuff we bought, I had a soft top carrier in the trunk if I needed it, I did not buy some things, because I did not want to use it.
Jerry, I really only collect H.O. scale, what about you ?

I'm not sure what marriage and these hobbies have to do with anything. My wife loves the old trains, slotcars, and spotting the old regular wheels Matchbox cars for me!

I collect various scales other than HO - I got into N, one set of G, and some odds and ends of vintage TT from the '50's and '60's. Same with slot cars, I have HO, 1/24, 1/32, and 1/43. Mostly HO, but a bit of each of the other 3. I major in one scale, usually, but have interests in others as well.

| My wife doesn't mind my hobby either. Actually, she really, really like Lionel. If we had more space and money, she would love to have O scale trains all over the place. She always goes with me to railfan events.
