My apologies!

Boy I blew it! First I now notice that I clicked on the wrong automatic entry and used my Model T Forum alias instead of my real name, very unintentional!
Second, I posted late at night and what was meant to be a kindly comment doesn't read as one. I meant only to say that, as much as we'd like to know if the FEBT has enough to get the cars, publishing the "war chest" total might tip the hand(s) of someone who would bid against them (as much as I think all of us here hope does not happen. It'd be nice if they got them for $1 each!).
So, I am sorry, I did not mean to be nasty or insulting or anything, just wanted to point out the difficutly in posting or not posting whatever the FEBT has raised. Whatever they raise now, you can bet they'll need more to do the restorations--wooden RR cars are like old boats--money sponges! But they are sooo pretty when done.
My apologies, I will endevor to be more clear in the future!
Steamcerely,
David Dewey
