Retail therapy

I did some serious damage to my bank account this week-end. I guess it was inevitable since I showed incredible restraint during my year in Prague. Mind you, crystal, garnet and shoes aren't my thing so it was pretty easy to not buy much for myself. I did manage to pick up a bunch of viaducts that are hard to get in North America. However, things would have been different had I been assigned to Munich. It seemed like every department store sold model trains. I would like to return to Germany specifically for a train holiday and do some serious shopping!

After my visit to HobbyTech, my rolling stock is now up to seven train sets, which are all MiniTrix. There's a few other I would like to add to my inventory, but the sets I have now are enough for my European railway station layout. There are a few passenger cars that weren't in stock so I had to place an order. Sleeper cars will be pulled by a class 185 locomotive that's designed for cross border traffic.
