Hello,

Let me start off by saying I know next to nothing about model trains. My stepfather loved them, though, and amassed quite a collection of 0-gauge engines and cars. My mother has held onto them since his death because she didn't know what to do with them, but she recently gave me some of them to see if I could figure out how to sell them.

Does anyone from your club has suggestions for how to go about this?

I have in my possession here in Austin the following. All are packed in their original boxes. Since my stepfather didn't have room for an extensive layout, they were probably only used once or twice, if at all.

Lionel NYC-Hudson #785, 4-6-4, 6-18002 (This was bought in December of 1989 for $1250. It was probably taken out of the box once but never used.)

Lionel Reading T-1, 4-8-4, 6-18006

Williams PRR E6s, 4-4-2, Pennsylvania #460, No. 6300, Crown Edition

I'd appreciate any advice you can give me. I'm not looking to make a fortune off of these, but I'd like to sell them at a fair price to someone who will enjoy them as much as my stepfather did.

Thank for your help!
