Oh, what a loss! This is really a strike of bad luck - but still you were lucky to be at home at the right time...
I wish you luck that the insurance pays in full for the damage. Some companies are champions for finding lame excuses when it comes to paying a damage...
BTW, I sort of keep an accountancy for everything I buy for my hobby - not only rolling stock, but also tools and other stuff - just for such a case. A friend of mine went all through that, too - and he was glad to have such a list for the insurance. That's when I started to copy his idea.
I'm glad for you that you still have the 'big stuff'! :thumb: Go on and happy railroading!
