This is my story...
My Great Aunt Jo started collecting in 1996 and bought for my mom as well every year until she passed away in 2007. Mom did not purchase after that, as it was something she had shared with a beloved aunt. She loved and cherished the ornaments and put them on her tree every year in celebration of Aunt Jo. I always loved the ornaments and wanted to start my own collection, but never got around to it.
Then mom passed away in 2017, followed by dad a year and a half later. My sister and I just could not bring ourselves to go through their things until last year. Anyway, I inherited her collection and want to complete it. I have bought 2011-2021 rom the gift shop, but need to find the ones missing.
Does anyone know where I can buy those?

The locomotive is festively decorated with Texas Lone Stars, Texas Flags, and a holiday wreath prominently featuring the Capitol Dome and is finished in 24K gold!
Sales from this exclusive ornament, the 24th in the series, support the ongoing preservation and interpretation of the Texas Capitol for over one million visitors annually.
