Started my train collection backing 1971 with the Burlington GP20 set of 5 cars, HN boxcar, 3 tractor flatcar, 6 car autoloader, UP gondola with 3 concrete pipes, and a Burlington caboose! This collection now includes over 700 locos, and well over 80 passenger car sets, not to mention hundreds of freight cars....Only think I can justify this, and get away with it, is that I must have OCD!!! LOL

Wow, that is one HUGE collection, Badboy! And my wife thinks I have too many with maybe 50 locos and a hundred cars. Although my little Cape Cod house is about to burst with all the stuff I have. LOL. Anyway, glad you're aboard, like previous poster, break out a camera and start posting pics of your stuff. Is it high-end stuff, or do you have Tyco as well? I think most of us on here have a good mix, we enjoy them all. You're set for a few years, if no decades, on Locomotive of the Week postings!
