Do you collect certain O gauge items or buy certain things?

I have a weakness for live steam in O gauge and likely would rob a bank if I saw one I liked that was too expensive. Please don't mention this foible of mine to anyone.

I will buy a 6-Car Set of SOO LINE 4650 Cu. Ft. ACF Center Flow 3-Bay Covered Hoppers when MTH produces them.

What I have now is a train of Atlas O and Lionel SOO LINE PS-2-CD 4427 Cu. Ft. 3-Bay Covered Hoppers, a string of Grain Train Covered Hoppers from Lionel, K-Line, Weaver, and a gathering of Chicago & North Western Covered Hoppers from Lionel, MTH, Weaver.

The SOO LINE Locomotives from the 1960's and 1970's are a big preference.

Santa Fe Superfleet Locomotives from 1991-1995 are very appealing.

At first, I just bought anything that caught my eye. Now that I have a nice little collection going, all newer engines and cars, I am becoming more selective.

For example, I bought the Lionel CP Rail Lionmaster and eventually bought 10 CP Rail freight cars to make my own set. I'm now doing this with B&O freight cars. I've also started to collect Beer Cars. So far, I have Pabst, Miller, Labatts, Genessee, Carling Stroh's and Robin Hood beer cars. I'm still looking to add to this collection.

Pennsy scale steamers, I have 4 Lionel now and billboard reefers. I have 12 reefers, 10 are Atlas, one is lionel (Hoods Milk), and one K-line gold series scale Columbia Soups. Some would probably consider that just a train, not a collection, but I guess 1 or more could also be a collection, or the least a start.
