My friend Typeking has passed!

Ray was not real active as he just joined!

Not a computer guy he allowed me to share his guns and
items!

I wish he had more time to share,but as time goes on,I will post more!

We just were talking about Lugers, and things his son a avid collector
was buying!

He planned on us getting more pics of items for me to show members!

We will continue his wishes!

Ray was 73 and we had been friends since I was 12 and taking a liking to military!

He was a wonderful and nice guy!

Loved history!

Sorry to hear about your friend, he sounded like a great guy.
I will be 73 in a few weeks, this is happening way to often at our age.
Coming from a large city, Cincinnati, I was kind of wild at a young age.
All the drinking, drugs, cars, rock music, and everything else.
People always warned us about the drinking, drugs, fast cars, music, but never warned us about getting old.
again, sorry, and stay safe,
Ed

Wow, very nice room.
That looks like a Winchester Commemorative box on the work bench, kind of out of place if it is.
I can not narrow my collecting either, military, western, toy trains and guns, everything.

Mostly Lionel Post War O gauge, mostly steam and freight.
Some pre war Lionel. A little MTH.

I never had any O gauge but I am jealous

I've got various generations of Marklin HO up to 1985. All analog. Now sleeping in the attic.

I had a 12x16 layout at my wifes old house that ran 8 trains and two trolleys. That was 16 years ago.
Now only have a 5x12 that runs 2 trains and a single trolley.
Most are on display in glass cabinets.
