I just wanted to gather some info from any of you that might now. Like I said I am into O scale and I wouldnt have much more to contribute as I know little to nothing about Marlin stuff.

Joined: 04/07/2006(UTC) Posts: 468 Location: Kokomo, IN		I emailed him on the collection, but unfortunatly being out of work for so long have left me short of cash. I fear my offer is to low for his liking. I really want the trains, bridge set and signals. The turnouts I would pass on to a friend that is struggling to build the interchange yard that connects his layout to mine and the extra M track would work for my overhead layout in our living room. The economy in the states is spiraling down the drain with no end in sight yet. We we live is now considered the 2nd most dying city in the USA. I hope the collection finds a good home, I know it would here if I were more blessed with a stable job. Cheers Mike and Michele T
