Right now, I really do not care about the profit. I just want one of these Railroad Commemoratives for my collection!

If they were to come to fruition I believe the only "profit" would be made by the MINT and by what ever non-profit railroad entity they would assign the benefit to. Sorry eaglefoot...

FYI......whenever I put this symbol by any particular statement... ().....that is to signify that I'm trying to be "funny"....kiddn'......horsin' around......chuckle chuckle......


Anyway......
Yeah, there must be many historical preservation groups for old Railroad steam engines, tourism groups/societies........all kinds of avenues for the money to go to !......That'd really be neat !

Then we are in agreement! Contact the local railroad preservation society and your Congressional Representatives; let's get the ball moving!

Jbuck will probably have to use his old Mafia contacts in Chicago to "strongarm" some politicians and give them some "incentive money" to get the ball rolling !....

Now that you have said this, you have shown me that you know too much. Pay no attention to those guys coming up the driveway!

On a serious note, how many people here think our commemorative idea is a good one?

Sounds like we need you to start another poll jbuck to see if we should submit the design collectively from members of CCF?

Just goes to show you that not all committees are dysfunctional. I think we've produced something phenomenal here.
