You won’t be able to edit your posts directly, but if you make a mistake that’s really embarrassing or gives incorrect info, e-mail one of the editors directly (click on “contact us” in the bar at the bottom of the page)and we can fix it for you. But I think everyone will be forgiving about simple typos, and you can just add a second post correcting something you might have goofed up the first time. This is an informal exchange of information. Precise typing and editing skills are not required to be a part of this forum.

How do post a question? I am trying to find a coal tender and cars for a lionel engine #221 made about 1946. It was set that I had as a child and I am trying to restore the set.
