    My guilty pleasures are photographs (over 30 years worth!), issues of TRAINS magazine (I've been buying at the hobby shop or subscribing since November 1967 and have lots of earlier issues), and timetables (both public and employee).
    I also have about a dozen Official Guides and a sizable railroad library.

    Most important, my wife is quite tolerant of this collection.
    The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

    I collect anything that is from the Grand Trunk Railroad e.g. photos, HO cars,locos, books, magazines, patches, timetables, coffee mugs etc., - I also collect items from Canadian National as well.
    Actually it doesnt really matter what roadname it is - if it appeals to me I'll buy it - but if its GTW or CN GOTTA HAVE IT!

    I collect books, 150+, magazines - all but 6 MR back to 1950 and some before then, all of RMC back to 1972 plus quite a few before then, oll of NMRA Bulletin back to 1972, many, many issues of Trains, S Gaugian, S gauge Herald, Classic Trains, Classic Toy Trains, NWSL, and others. I also have lots of models in HO, S, and O, many of which are no longer made.
