I aslo have the dollars spent to acquire these items. But lets not ask that question.

Joined: 26/10/2004(UTC) Posts: 461 Location: Bruges,		Santa brought the count up to 15. Latest addition is a Mehano Vossloh HLD, type 77 of the NMBS (Belgian railways). It's very finely detailed but also looks very fragile. I haven't run it that much, but first impressions are good. The sound from the loksound decoder is great, but I'll need to lower the volume a little. It runs very smoothly and can really crawl along at very low speed.
		Kind regards, Pieter-Jan Bruges, Belgium.

I also use Excel to keep track of my inventory along with costs, works rather well. I am also in the process of doing an over all inventory where I am hauling out all the boxes from storage (I keep all the boxes for the rolling stock and locs) and compare what I actually have with what is in the spreadsheet just to make sure the numbers jive. I did find some errors and those are now corrected. I also started a second inventory workbook in Excel where individual worksheets contain the qty, manufacaturer, description, and if the item is out of the box and the box number the items are packed in. I will print the sheet and insert it into a lablelope (Canada Post calls it this, it is a plastic pouch which is stuck onto the box) along with numbering the box. This will make for locating a specific item easier. I also have the chance to see if the items were damaged by mice or not. My case no problems with mice :)

Ray and Olav: Marklin produced one only italian loco (E424), and four other derived from german ones: two small diesel (derived from kof and V36) and two steamers (derived from BR55 and BR38). But these four were moderately used since there were a few and often they had limits on rolling in our tracks. Foumaro: It's a particular loco composed by two semi-locomotives joined together, as you can see: this is a typical italian design for heavy electric locos. Yes, the picture under the cab is a gator: this locomotive's name is "Caimano" (Caiman)... I don't have a swiss croc but with this I own a reptile anyhow... maybe I can join the gator club Pietro
