My wish list? More time to work on my model railroad - and maybe more space for it too. But I also want more time to spend with the baby (he's only one year old, so working together on the layout is not yet an option), and with my wife. Some way to have an income without spending 40 hours a week pursuing it would be great!

But peace on earth, good health for family and friends, and a different job would come first....

Oh, you mean stuff for my model railroad? How about a dozen assorted Peco switches, a Proto 2000 S4 switcher painted for the Dominion Atlantic, and some building for my townsite?

well lets see. a santa fe switcher (one from the 1990s), plaster cloth, more paints, signs for shops on my layout, a couple more HO scale cars (if santa's pockets go that deep!!), an ho santa fe GP60M, and a "copy" of the mine on the Turtle Creek Central layout.

Hmmmmm....

Well, I have a loco list of what I'd like: (N Scale) here's what's at the top...

Bachmann Spectrum 4-8-2 Southern
Kato AC4400 CP 2 Flags
Kato PA1s D&H
A slew of TCS decoders, a Digitrax DT400R, and about 7 Digitrax PnP decoders.
There's an assortment of quality tools I'd like.

Most of all, I'd like a place to call my own, where I can build a layout, put my workshop back into action, lay my head down at night, and cook up a storm when the fancy takes me.

I would like every single dictator and terrorist in the world to drop dead at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve. I would like the problem of world hunger to be resolved in the coming year. I would like racism to end. I wish for politicians to become completely honest in all their dealings. Granted these wishes, I can handle the rest of what I might want for Christmas.

I have a similar list compared to "mustanggt". I really would like some guilford geeps and about 5 or 6 turnouts and KNOW my wife ordered a 1:87 VW gti from discount trains! Yipee!! I have not seen any Guilford layout pix and would really like to because Im in maine and that is all I ever see roll by my house. And yes, I would also like to see the end of the Iraq war and my buddy Pvt Grover come home soon! Peace on EARTH!!!

Hmm, as this is a WISH list.....

Everything in the "Buddy L" Train Catalog from 1921 to 1931!!!

but I have a better chance of having a torrid love affair with Selma Hyack than I do of getting this rare collection...

   Have fun with your trains
