Thank you fred16850 
I must concur...It really does seems it was meant to be!! Our collection was meant to house a complete representation of this line of Thomas toys, its history, and to serve as a living library of preservation...This set will be cherished for many generations, cared for, and protected with the all the love and respect it is worthy of!! As, for the "kid" who got it, I realize all parents are biased to their own children, but Tully truly is one of kindest people I have ever known, and I often wonder just how I could have ever been so lucky to get to be his dad?!? He will inherit this collection one day, and already understands this piece's significants and that of our collection, and his responsibilities to maintaining it for the future...This set is HOME now!! Saved and SAFE... LOVED & FOREVER appreciated.
