Both my grandfathers had model railroads in their places. One had H.O and the other Lionel. My dad received the lionel from his dad and, well, is giving it to me. Wheneve4r I open the chest the small Lionel set is in, I get this odor from all the parts inside and that just brings me joy. Then I get to play with it. My mothers father willed all his H.O stuff to me. I mean really old stuff from the 40's and 50's. Not too much stuff, but some original hardened paperboard buildings with cellophane for windows, Two old Engines, a 4-6-2 and a GP something diesel from Athern. Both are all metal and heavy compared to what I can buy new today. There is also some lights and other things. I am going to stay strictly with H.O., but I'll keep the 0-27 for Christmas. The engine needs some work to make it work, but All else is fine. <br /> Jim "Space" lawson
