Hey, mom is going to be 99 in several months and I thought you would like to see what she reads, LOL. Mom bought my first train set from Lionel in 1952 !!

How wonderful it is, for you to still have your mother living at 99. That's absolutely amazing. God love you both.
God bless your mother!
But did you send the set back?
I copied the image, Eliot, and may...just may...have something for your mom to see in a future issue.
What a great photo. I'm sure that one will go down in family folk lore and if it shows up in the OGR magazine it will be one for OGR folk lore as well. God bless your Mom.
Very nice! Does she post on the forum?
Well, that bumps forum member Sonny to perhaps the oldest forum member. He's a spry 92.

Funniest comment about me I have heard, LOLOL. The set is 64 years old and still runs great !!!
I plan on staying with Lionel Trains as long as the Lord gives me strength. If I make it to 99, I will still be running my trains, if I'm able.
You never know more than your mother!
That's great. You are so lucky to still have your mother. God Bless Her. I wish I had mine. She passed away in 1997.
Nice! I bet she is still trying to give you good sound motherly advice, so you don't go astray. My mum is still alive at 95-1/2 and pretty feeble, but still trying to tell me what to do and not do. Don't they ever quit? Ya gotta love 'em.

Is she hi-rail or scale ? !!
That's awesome to see your mom with a copy of OGR in her hands!

Who wants to bet that she's still not the oldest reader of the magazine?
Eliot,
That's great. She is after all, a Rose.

I like it!
Thanks. Made my day!
God bless !!!
You're a lucky man Eliot. Blessed be your mom and thanks for sharing her picture with us.
What a great photo, Eliot!!! God bless all of you.
Eliot, when you posted the picture of your beautiful mother , the big shots saw the post and ordered Ryan to get to work. If this women sees the problem we are causing her son, all heck is going to break loose. Wish her a happy birthday from the total OGR family. Tstark
