HELLO - I have an unusuall 16,000 s.f. store in the Palm Springs, California area that carries, well, unusual merchandise -- I am involved with the museum list as a result of the antiquities that are brought to me, however, I just thought I'd mention to you I also have "railroad" buyers and sellers of sorts -- one of my buyers wants stock certificates from any of the railroads represented on the monopoly game, and, one of my sellers has a lovely cherrywood piece of furniture that is described as between a very slim and simple desk and a credenza sofa table. She claims came out of the office of the CEO of Southern Pacific Railroad. I am also looking for the American painter by the last name of Young who travelled by train around the turn of the century, painting the landscapes as he was passing through. . . If I may every be a resource, (other than scholarly) please feel free to let me know!!
