I must have lost my mind!!!
Have I now joined the dark side???
Last friday night I was lying bed (as one does) and started looking at FB marketplace. I have the control in of only looking at ads within a 100 kms from here - so essentially locally only.
ANd I saw this advert. AT first I could not believe it. Then I thought this is not your hobby. Then I panicked over what my wife would say. Then I thought no it must be wrong
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY EUROS for this?
It must be gone I thought - what the heck _ will send a mail and see. so no real issue or harm in just sending a mail?
Sat am phone beeps - and gues what - I was the first. WHAT???? holy guacamole how do I tell swmbo. Uhmmmm put my big dress on and broached the subject, and amazingly she said yes.
SO I bought it
22 Loco's - 17 work
55 Coaches
32 freight type trucks
Hundreds of tracks
at least 50 points
Buildings
Just one of the loco's is worth more than what I paid.
Question is - what to do now???
PS I blame epilot for this - getting me into railway mags for scenery
