<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stevearino, post: 2402389, member: 74571&quot;][USER=8797]@silentnviolent[/USER], so you&#039;re a Ranger!&nbsp; You guys are a special breed!&nbsp; [USER=68821]@charlie123[/USER], this thread prompted me to bring two pocket watches to a jeweler today in Fargo, ND.&nbsp; He sends them to a repair specialist in NY.&nbsp; I&#039;m hoping to make enough from the sale of the Omega pocket watch to pay for having both fixed, allowing me to keep Grandpa John&#039;s in working condition.&nbsp; I&#039;m sure it hasn&#039;t been cleaned...ever...and he would be 156 years old if he were still alive.&nbsp; Besides wishing I had obtained a watch or two from my buddies, I wish I had the large 2&#039;x3&#039;-4&#039; calenders the train men would bring in for the Cafe wall each year, always with the Great Northern goat logo, of course.&nbsp; I think my youngest brother saved a few of them when he got older, but my guess is they were tossed when the new ones came.&nbsp; Of course, knowing how thick the smoke was in the Cafe, I wonder what collectible value they would have had after hanging in the smog for a whole year.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
