300 in 1976 would be 1255 and 27 cents today.    YOW.

So sorry to hear about all the woes you all are having.

Ever hear of Hill Country Train Shop, New Braunfels, TX? That one cost me $300 
in 1976 dollars! At least that debacle made the pages of MR! I think Jan 
Lorenzen (Locomotive Workshop) went to the bankruptcy auction to buy nickel 
silver bar stock...

You're right George - there is a real feeling of family with the charlatans' of 
our past!! <G>
