Can i buy the texana queen

You have to have your location on your profile to buy/sell. If you go to your profile, there should be an "Edit my Profile" button in the top right corner. It'll open up several different options, one of which is a text box to type your location.

 

It's been a year since the original post was updated so idk if they're still available. But if they are, I'd definitely also be interested in buying some of the colonies listed.
