Is one of the forum members making the custom painted piggybacks that's been on EBay several times? These are Coke, Pepsi & Sunkist...

| The way Tyco had so many other cars painted up for products, it is rather amazing they never had trailers painted like this. I don't think I'd pay so much for something like this, but it is a cool idea.

| I'm really not impressed with these on EBay now. They've been on auction for a long time now. To me they're just painted one color with a sticker/decal added. Tyco did add a little detail to their trailers.

That's what I was just thinking. The blurry pictures aren't exactly helping his case either...maybe they're blurry for a reason...

And I'm not trying to down grade them, but they're pretty plain. I could have easily produced these at age 12.

They're cool. They were probably a quick fun project that adds a little different color to the consist and could be done in less than a day with a little work on the computer to make the labels.
I probably wouldn't buy them for that price though.
