[Shunter]

Hi, I'm not a railway enthusiast myself, but have a question to ask and thought this might be a good place to start.

My granddad has been fascinated with steam trains and railways in general for most of his life, and worked in a signal box near Avonmouth for many years. Sadly he now has advanced dementia and has had to move to a care home.

I now have his substantial (100+) collection of railway and steam books (some relate to railway modelling, but most are about real life steam) and need to sell them. I realise that there is a for sale forum on this site, but I'm hoping to sell the books as a job lot, I would be very interested to hear from members whether or not they think this would be a good place to advertise them, or any other suggestions you may have. In time (once sorted), I will also have a very large amount of 00 track, engines, rolling stock and various accesories to sell, so any suggestions on this would be welcomed too.

Sorry for the very long post and thanks in advance for any help you can give.
