You will need the free "Adobe Acrobat Reader" to view the catalog, which is in .pdf format.  Most of you should already have some form of this pre-installed on your computer.  The catalog should automatically display within your browser window in .pdf form.  If you do not have the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software, Go Here to download the latest free version.

If you have a slow Internet connection, most pages should open fairly quickly (about 20 seconds), but certain pages may take up to a few minutes to open, if they contain several images of items for sale. During this time, you may see a blank browser window, and it may say "Document Done", when in reality it is still loading.  Simply wait for it to open.  When finished browsing one page, close the window and choose another.  If there are several pages you would like to browse, you might save time by trying the optional method of opening the catalog.

If you wish to order by US mail instead, and not send any e-mail whatsoever, feel free.  Print and fill-out the Order Form, and mail it with your payment.

.. --Appraisal --Questions ..

I do not offer an appraisal  service. Sorry.  I will only make offers on items which interest me that you are attempting to sell to me, and I am very selective these days.  Thanks for understanding.-Back to menu
 

You may search the catalog (or portions of catalog) once opened in Acrobat Reader.  In order to search, you will need to save the catalog to your hard drive first, and then open the hard drive file with Acrobat Reader.  In the upper left-hand corner of Acrobat Reader, simply select "Edit", then  "Search", then "Query" from the pull-down menus.

I recommend that you search only one railroad name at a time, by using reporting marks (such as: AT&SF), as opposed to full names.  Also try names of cities, divisions, branch lines, etc.  However, just because a city name, division, or something else that you're looking for doesn't appear in the search box doesn't necessarily mean I don't have what you're looking for, if, say, the name is within the confines of something larger.-Back to menu

.. --E-Mail ..

When you send e-mail (or by hitting the mailbox icon below), it will go through to both of my e-mail addresses, in case one or the other fails.  If you don't get a reply, that means there is a reason beyond my control.  Please be patient if this happens.  If you are new to the website, please visit the Catalog Info page.-Back to menu

.. --Hits -- ..

There is really no set schedule at this time, but the catalog will be updated from time to time as inventory changes warrent.  If you would like to know each time there is an update, send a BLANK e-mail to the following e-mail address:  CLICK HERE and then follow the directions as prescribed by the FOLLOW-UP E-MAIL you should receive from Yahoo Groups.  If you don't receive the follow-up e-mail immediately after sending the blank e-mail, CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER, in case it accidently ends up in there. Do NOT send me personal notes pertaining to orders through that address, because it won't reach me.  For all e-mail pertaining to orders, click here: e-mail , or the "mailbox" icon further below.-Back to menu

.. --Sellers & --Traders ..

Trading is no longer accepted for most items, with exception of certain track charts, signal and track diagram books, freight schedules, and other engineering related diagram books which I do not currently have.  Please write, e-mail, or call.  I am very selective these days.

While not necessary, a photo scan or digital photos attached to e-mail --OR-- standard photos (and/or list) sent through the mail to my home address below to help illustrate what you have, would be of great help.  This is an especially good idea for you to do on rare items that are hard to describe.  Another way would be to contact me by phone at 1-608-622-0703, but I generally like to see the details written-out, to give me some time to consider what items I might (or might not) want to purchase from you.  Feel free to state an asking price for the items you wish to sell.  Otherwise, ask me to make an offer.-Back to menu
