I got two beautiful display cases from Showcase Express. Now, I can get some trains out of boxes and put them where I can see them. The hardest part will be trying to decide which ones to display.
Well I have to amend the Christmas gifts as one came a day or so late. My wife hearing my laments about not always having enough light and occasionally not being able to see well enough came up with this. It combines two levels of LED lights that can be ramped up or down in intensity plus the advantages of an optivisor with two more levels of magnification that can be swung over the big lense.
Well as I stated earlier in another post http://www.trainboard.com/grapevine/showthread.php?137787-SCORE-!!!!!!!!!!!-Early-Christmas-for-me. The wife, daughter and I went to Daytona Beach, Fl. early november 2011. Took them to a second hand store and found some brand new MTL's and Atlas rolling stock. I bought 150 of them for $3.00 each. After we got home I went thru them only and only had 6 duplicate cars. This will christmas for me for the next couple of years.
