Steamwolf: Thanks for the tip. I will see if I can find "garmax" on the Bay. I am waiting on 2 E-bay packages at the moment. One an AF Prewar passenger set where I won an auction (meaning I likely paid too much) and the other a French Hornby clockwork set (just engine, tender and one passenger coach + a modest amount of track but still in the box ) where we bargained to a final price but no auction. I liked this seller because not only was his price reasonable but he was willing to bargain and he offered free shipping. That should be at my place in about a week. Will post pictures when it arrives.
Again thanks for the comeback on the coaches
