nice! lets see.... i got $20.... i don't think that's a good offer....
Sell my house. Buy the locomotive and tender. Then buy a caboose to live in. Hmmm. Not sure if I want to live in Utica, New York. Do you think I could tow it back to Canada with my Toyota?
Seriously, though, the $65,000, or whatever it goes for, would just be the start. But wouldn't that be something to park on your front lawn?

I am so watching this auction. I wish it would go to a museum. They should donate it! It could be a deduction no?

I depends on how many parts you bring at a time :)
I like the living in the caboose idea though, maybe get a part time job with a shortline railroad. That would certainly bring a whole new meeting to working from home. The only downside I could see is you'd need to dowsize the layout if you were to move into a caboose... unless you got a boxcar for the layout. That would be cool.
