I would be very skeptical about this to say the least. I mean, this is like going out and buying a guitar that was once owned by Elvis. It would now be worth millions. I would think the same thing would hold true with any locomotives that was once owned by John Allen. Hey, ask yourself this. If you had something that was from his railroad collection, and could prove it, what would you sell it for? I read somewhere that talked about the houses that Norm Abram remodeled before he became a television star. They say that now those same houses are worth thousands up and beyond the normal real estate prices all because he was the one that did the remodeling. Let's face it, John Allen was the Elvis of model railroading. Any model railroading equipment that he owned, one could ask almost any price for and get it.. Either the guy you bought it from is lying, or he was totally ignorant of the value of such an item. Which do you think it would most likely be? If it is real, then you got yourself the deal of a lifetime. <br /> <br />Georgia Boy
