has yielded mostly this:

Do they exist, or did Walt snatch every last known piece? Come to think of it,
lamp posts are hard to find as well...
Well, I won't be around much next week- off to find the Loch Ness Monster
and the Abdominal Snow Person.

Actually, Chops.. I only have one Bubble Yum Box car. Now I did buy like, uh, 10 of the trucks with trailers, as I did the other trailers Tyco had to offer. Once I realized I had a habitual buying habit with these, I limited my self to 10 trailers each...
I wish I had a second Bubble Yum box car. I would trade it to you for ? well, maybe a pile of bird bones or something....

microbusss,
I thought the Santa Fe trailers were white? Assuming that you referenced the 354-A Santa Fe piggyback flat car, is there a grey variation of this?

| The SF trailers had a silver/gray version with red print. They are fairly common on eBay and at train shows. 🙂

Going to chum the waters in the search for the elusive Bubble Yum car...
The stirrup damage does not appear to be a break, so I am wondering if it is a factory molding
defect.
I believe I might also have an excellent condition Champion Spark Plug and an excellent
Mirror Motors auto show room, as well. Will post up pics later.

I would kind of like to buy the Kellogg's hopper with the few red letters, I don't know why... I have a Tyco and the AHM version. Isn't that enough?

The slippery slope beckons...I swore up and down I was done buying
rolling stock, ended up buying like two dozen pieces.
Ironically, I got the Kellog's thinking it was I who was going to
make Micro jealous!! Looks like that scheme backfired. I think
traded my original Kellog's off to him about three years ago or so.

FINALLY. I got into a mad bidding war in the last two minutes of eBay. It was a regular slugging match, but I finally triumphed at about $45. Ouch. But I've been trying to get one for years and years, ever since I first saw one on the TF.
To offset my little bit of hilarity, I am looking to sell the companion piece Bubble Yum Tractor Trailer which is also NIB, NOS. Any interest before I
put in on eBay?
I stayed to long with the Hookers, the Kellogs, and now I don't want to give them up!
