The link to the pictures just takes you to a blank page. The link the list requires a login.

Sorry to hear you get out of the hobby, you did so much for the hobby in the past and it was a pleasure to work for you.
But of course good look for the future and your new life in Brazil!
BTW: The links don't work

That link works! Nice collection. I've admired your photos over the years so a lot of the pieces are very familiar.
Sorry that you're having to exit the hobby. Hopefully you will find good homes for these items. Being a BNSF modeler I am salivating, but I'm about one more "life happens" incident away from being out of the hobby myself. So I'll have to watch from the sidelines. Good luck!

Jürg May I suggest that you not rush to sell all your Z scale. There is an active model railroad (ferromodelismo) community in Brazil, particularly in the Germanic regions of southern Brazil: www.facebook.com/loucosportrens/And there is even some Z scale: Mark |

This is sad to learn..  I've also been watching a lot your work, I would actually say that because of it, I decided to stay in Z scale, at the time AZL release the Challenger, PA's etc.. I agree with Mark's suggestion, at least keep some of it, at least your brass locos! They're so rare, and Z isn't so big to carry along in your suitcase! I say that even if some of your stuff is still on my dream list like the PA and switchers! I had to sell my Big boy last year....still thinking of it  ....I won't do the same for the others! Wishing you the best! Charlie |

Jürg, you should keep at least one Z scale C44-9 with you.  Maybe going to Brazil will give you the idea to modify it as a Zm BB44-9Wm.  .. Dom |
