" I realize this is really off purpose, but maybe somebody can help.

A lady with whom I go to church told me today that her husband's father's brass
collection was recently stolen. Apparently the thief took individual pieces to
pawn shops in the Tidewater, Virginia area. If you happen to go to a pawn shop
in this area in the near future, please check. Based on the one I saw, the man
was a collector, not a railroader. It was exactly like the day he bought it:
unpainted, weight not added, extra screws still in pack, etc. According to his
daughter-in-law, he had multi-railroad locomotives plus brass rolling stock.
Apparently he preferred Sunset.
