I have an opportunity to ship my old Lionel train sets and accessories, 
purchased when in my youth,  from the mid west to Austin. The sets and 
accessories are
approximate 55 + years old. They are all in their original boxes.
 
I understand from shippers that there is a very good chance they will be 
stolen in transit.
 
What transport and type of insurance would your organization recommend? 
Also, when they arrive where might you suggest I take them for repair 
and maintenance? The train set, which is quite extensive, has not been 
set up for a number of years (15 at least).
 
I would appreciate your help here.
 
Bob
