It's an expensive hobby, no matter what you buy, so it's easy enough to second-guess yourself on any purchase.

I agree I do this. Even something that I have time to look into, it is on my list, wait a while before purchasing, and have the disposable income to do it, I will often second guess. I do sell some, though it is usually because I found something else that will fill its spot more to my liking on the roster. I often go to train shows and buy very little. However in early November I was at the Monroeville Greenberg show and saw these for $150 for the pair, Legacy and non powered. The Legacy one ran well, but both needed some work. The most glaring need was the missing hood cover. For $40 I bought the needed parts (except for one bell) at the Lionel sale and they are looking good. Many here know that I usually buy Western Maryland engines. Maybe I'll paint them for WM, but I do like the looks of the GN livery.
