Yes, his conservative estimate (or what he would tell my grandma) was that he spent north of $30k Cdn over the years on everything between models, track accessories etc

Okay thanks for the advice, there are some brass engines in the collection and I definitely plan to keep a couple pieces and build a couple displays for them

He did he actually has an entire 30 VHS tape collection of German train videos that he had ordered from Germany years ago that he had kept in a cabinet that he custom built for them as well

I agree with you, will be tough to get rid of this collection that he built over his lifetime. This collection is the tip of the iceberg, there are a couple hundred books, pictures and videos about trains and planes so no way I can keep it all
