And now, a message from our sponsor.

Life has been quite hectic around the Caboose Coffee ranch for a couple of months.   While most of you come to this site to read authentic railroad stories, and I come here to write them..., the stories don't put new shoes on my grandson.., or myself, for that matter.  So, I've been focusing on my internet hobby shop, http://caboosecoffeehobbies.blogspot.ca/.  We've recently been asked to sell a substantial collection of mostly HO scale brass locomotives, cabooses, passenger cars and maintenance of way cars.  There are CP, CN, GN, BN, BC Rail, logging and others in the collection.
I've set up separate "pages" for each of the railroads' engines and rolling stock, so look for the tabs near the top of the home page and scroll down through the models that are posted there.  The collection is made up of over a hundred models, so bookmark the site and check back now and then to see what's new.  Or, you can write for a list of the models and their prices.

As for pricing, I've used a number of sources to determine a base-line for each model, but the market will determine final price.  If you see something you'd like to have, and feel the price is too high, don't hesitate to make an offer on it, and we'll figure out a reasonable compromise.

We're gearing up for the annual Victoria Model Show on September 8th and will be back with a new story after the show.   If you're going to be in our neighborhood during the show, be sure to drop by our booth and say hello.  Bruce, Susan and Colin will be there to help you find what you're looking for.
