She's a keeper!

Capt_Turk, you're at least a bit better than the cannibal in one of my favorite jokes. <br />Cannibal 1: Your wife sure makes a good stew. <br />Cannibal 2: Yeah, but you know, I'm beginning to miss her already! <br /> <br />The first administration barely put up with railroading (HO and railfanning). But we WERE short on moolah. <br /> <br />This second administration actually insisted on buying our first LGB train set. She thought the Stainz set was cute. I offered no comment. <br /> <br />THEN she fell in love with an LGB Mogul with Pennsy colors (sometime in the late 1980's). Now the Pennsy ran very little narrow gauge but this thing had SOUND - bell and whistle. I did NOT bore her with any history. <br /> <br />After we got home she said we should buy it. Call and see if it's still there. I called and it was still there. Buy it she says and go get it. IT"S A HUNDRED MILE TRIP TO THE HOBBY SHOP (Mahwah, New Jersey)! <br /> <br />Last week after all these years, she just okayed another 4 boxes of track and 3 switches from St Aubin (Christmas, you know). I won't even ask if she's a keeper. <br /> <br />Art
