Awesome! My train room is also kind of a mess, but instead of doing what you're doing, selling stuff, I'm building more storage space for more trains 😂
I’m up to 11. One is a wind up that’s part of an old Wards wind up set that is going to the show next weekend I’ve restored / repainted 4 so far and the rest will be done over the winter Planning on getting more
My train room is also a mess. It seems to happen in the summer. I live about two hours from Wheaton and have been attending that show for 43 years. To my dismay, it’s gotten smaller. Even though I’m not really a marks I enjoy your videos. I worked for the Railroad as an engineer many young guys came up to me with their grandpa’s or great grandpa’s box of trains and wanted me tohave them. Because their family saw no value in the old trains. I took them with a promise if they ever want them back all I had to do was ask. I have a box set from sometime in the 30s someone didn’t get to play with it I would like to send you a picture of it, but I don’t know how to do that through UA-cam. About the show I go in November or December I hope to see you there sometime. There used to be a man that had a booth in the second building. They had marks Train parts and repaired some engines. Do you know if he’s still there? Thank you for your videos Train season will arrive shortly
I am always amazed at how old Lionels and Marx engines start right up after years of neglect!

Nice haul. Those are some nice locomotives. I would certainly leave the patina, as it adds character. An excellent video, as always.
You can never have too many C/Vs. I have four and prefer to not use the side sign. I can`t wait to see that haul.

Oh I think you have to clean it up and get it greased up just don’t paint it. Like the patina.
