Piggybacking ( OI! ) on my post in COTW, I also dug out this Tyco Unloading Depot, and decided to set it up to match the box picture. I got it 99%, unfortunately the truck is missing it's butt, so won't be haulin' nuthin' a'tall anymore. Looking at my flat car, and the one in the picture, I've noticed that sometimes they put the orange frameworks on the flat in the same direction, and other times, they are opposite, so the trailers aren't going the same way. strange. Anyway, a neat piece, other than the truck all the pieces are there and usable.
I've got a sealed BN terminal as well, not sure I'm gonna break that one open. But since this one is, I will use it eventually.

Buss, I got that one in my Golden Eagle set. And I still got 2 sections of straight track with the set too, so I would build a triangular layout instead of the standard oval! To a 13 year old kid, that was a cool bonus!

Nice buy there Ben! I also have that same accessory Jerry, no nite-glo. My not-so-Tyco AOTW is a Ulrich coal ramp set with operating hopper. Haven't loaded it yet. Just gotta get some better trucks. Picture is from eBay. Not bad for $25 and free shipping. Like new and my favorite coal ramp accessory of its time!

Jerry, I'm amazed those forks are holding that trailer! Mine can't hold any of my trailers!

Mine has good springs, I had to shake it to get it to release the trailer, I couldn't make it let go!

I have a bunch of the trailers for these! Which, I just discovered, I got atleast one white "Santa Fe" model trailers....2 Union Pacific yellow trailers, and I think 2 or 4 red trailers, I think they are Santa Fe's but I'm not sure of that without looking closer at them!
