    There are some times I think, I'm not interested in seeing the new treasures today, and consider skipping watching it - but you always tend to thow something cool into the video, a comment, a backstory, something that makes the video special. This was another example. Your Pepsi sign story was soooo sweet.

    People are always intrigued that twins even though they lived apart can be so similar in interests and mannerism. What surprises me is how you and your brother Steve have so much in common even though you just met and have one parent in common. You would expect identical twins to share a lot of traits but your situation where you don't share as much DNA and still have so much in common.

    That Pepsi sign is like the grand prize from the box because it was given to you by your brother and that makes it extra special and priceless!!!
    The trains were cool, but I really Love the slot car sets!!! I have a 1/32 scale slot car set that I have had since I was 3 years old, I turned 57 today, September 15th, 2022. My set was a give away item from the Dodge dealers in 1968 and my Pawpaw was given the set when he bought a brand new 1968 D100 truck. The set is made by Eldon and says Dodge 3 in 1 Road Race Set. The cars in my set are the Dodge Coronet R/T and Dodge Charger R/T. It also came with an extra body which is a Dodge truck. My set is in like new condition with the original box. I have my Pawpaw's truck and the slot car set. Life is good!!!

    ❤️LOVING that GIFT from your brother❣️ So very glad all this cool stuff got salvaged from garbage!!! Hate to see good things go to Landfills/dump sites! Happy re-homing. Glad the contents of your very big box did not get destroyed!!! Yes, I agree that shipping between Canada and USA takes soooo very long. And to make matters worse, there is usually no tracking available. I was so relieved when finally received items bought from you through Kastners! Patience is a virtue I strive for. But I HAAAATE waiting and not having information available
    Love you guys. 💘LOVE your happy happy Joy joy feel good videos❣️ Bye for now from Sabine in south Mississippi USA.🌊🐬🎣🌪⛵️🌝🦐🦀🦂🐠🦚🕊🦋💐

Loved your box of goodies.

    I just love your brother Alex, and you! I can just feel the love between the two of you as brothers is growing. The Pepsi sign looks great on the wall! Also, I loved seeing the slot car set. In the 60's, my older brother had a whole slot car set up in our garage. It was a built in platform with a couple of chairs set up, and the track and slot cars all set up. He would sit at that thing for hours and run the slot cars around. Even as an adult, he still loves slot cars, Formula One racing, and anything having to do with cars and racing. Great memories, thank you for sharing this one too!

    Hi--love to watch most of your videos; I'm not into trains, old toys, etc. I DO like the antiques of course. It kills me when you pass up the glass/dishes sections! But of course, being a guy I totally understand! Love the video on the old jewelry. Hey,, I'm an older female, what can I say! I do like the excursions you take with your family too. Enjoy your "find" and hope you get a nice amount for it all.

    Oh my gosh, I rode the California Zephyr when I was 9 (65 years ago). We went from Colorado to Chicago. It was an exciting train trip for a child. Going up to the observatory as we went through the mountains, eating in the dining car where I was given a deck of cards and generally roaming the train. We were allowed to roam more in those days and we did.

    My dad bought me that autorama set but it had two Corvettes. I also had two American Flyer locomotives. We lived in Canada before immigrating to the states. My dad built all my train cars from scrap hardwood he got from the pipe organ factory where he worked. He put lights in all the cars and hand painted them.
