I believe that was a couple selling their son's mostly-Burlington collection (sad story, if I got the facts right). I think the father told me he taught at Winona State (geography?), and if memory serves, his nametag had Trempeleau WI on it. Can't come up with a name, however. >From that collection I bought a custom-painted PRS RI express boxcar--but you >can't have it... I ALMOST bought their RI AM flatcar, but by then I had bought so much else at the Fest that I was feeling tapped out.
