I have figured out what is wrong with my brain!  On the left side nothing works right, and on the right side there is nothing left!

Thanks, stebby!!!!

I couldn't imagine selling it all off after a half of a lifetime's mission of collecting it!  But it seems his passion is in collecting, not running.  So perhaps this addiction and psychotic attachment to toy trains becomes the worst when you start playing with the stuff.......meaning that there is hope for him but not for us.  Big Smile 

How many of us have half-joked that we will be buried with our trains?

What I found somewhat soothing is that the entire collection will go to a single buyer and MAY remain intact.

Stebby,

Thanks for posting that video.

I faithfully watch the CBS Sunday Morning program every week, but wouldn't you know it, I skipped the program yesterday to get in some ballasting on the layout before Da Bears game in the afternoon.

When I first saw the title to the thread, I didn't know if you were calling us amateurs or armatures.   Laugh
