Ed Kelly,
I am definitely a newbie. This enterprise is for a family member and I am a fish out of water flopping on the shore. I've had over 100 sales totaling $13,000 in 2 months because there is evidently no passion like that of the train enthusiast! I am stunned at the generosity of the people here, it's been a godsend as I try and understand what I am doing!
It's fascinating to learn about this hobby. Truly.
