If I'm going to buy anything in the model train market that I look at as a potential investment (and I use the word investment lightly) or for potential collecting, it would be something along the lines of the MTH Coors train set or some other unique, oddball accessory. Some stuff does hold its value over time, but that's more related to the supply and demand of that one particular item. So things are out there for collectors, but main stream everyday items like the engines that litter our catalogs, I just don't see the value in keeping them pristine and on the shelf. Besides I ruin all my stuff by weathering it.
