Collectible Stocks and Bonds from North American Railroads             by Terry Cox

A guidebook and catalog of prices
(I neither buy nor sell stocks and bonds)
  Purpose  

 

My primary purpose in building this web site is to make a community where you and I can share information about RAILROAD STOCKS AND BONDS

The collecting of North American railroad stocks and bonds is very popular in the United States, Canada, Germany, and Great Britain. Nonetheless, by comparison to the stamp and coin hobbies, we are spread very thin indeed.

We need someplace where we can communicate on an on-going basis. The web is the perfect place, because distances do not exist.

Over the years, we have dramatically improved our collective level of knowledge. Since this is a one-man project, I do not have time to do things as quickly as I would like, so please be patient with me.

While you are here, please look around the web site a while. Bookmark the places you might like to revisit. I generally do not change page names, so you can return and not find a broken link. I am constantly adding more pages to the site, so you can always make suggestions about content and direction.

I work under the assumption that I am only one tiny part of the number of collectors who will extend indefinitely into the future. While I have opinions, I never assume that I am correct more than about half the time. In my world, YOU, and collectors like you, fill out the parts and the information I miss. I depend on YOU to correct my errors and oversights.

When you contribute knowledge about stock and bond collecting, you are helping every other collector out there. For now and years into the future.

Whether you are a raw beginner or a seasoned expert, I invite you to join in. Click on How You Can Help.

One final thing. I am a cataloger. I collect information. While I occasionally buy certificates for my tiny personal collection, I am NOT a serious collector. Nor am I a dealer (although I was in the business back in the early 1990s.)

Therefore, I have no interest in pushing prices higher nor in keeping them depressed. I report on prices as I see them.

===============

I DO NOT enjoy talking about myself, but I occasionally have people ask. If you want to learn more, you may open this seldom-visited biography page.
