Ken, this is the kind of stuff that certain collectors would die to get a hold of!! What's the story on these? When did Bachmann produce them? Or were they a special edition produced by some other entity using Bachmann models as a starting point? As a longtime Denver Broncos fan, I'm currently dropping a good amount of coin to the Bradbury Mint on a special edition train set decorated in commemoration of the 2013 Broncos team! I consider this acquisition not only as a keepsake of the great season we're having (if we win the Super Bowl tomorrow, that's even better!), but as an investment. I've seen individual cars from sets similar to these, Patriots, Packers, etc., going for as much as I'll have invested in the entire set once everything is said and done! And you'd be hard pressed to find more avid fans and collectors than those of "The King"! Good Job Ken!

Match the instrument of choice. Substitute little HO guitars.

| hi vbco1964 they are for hawthorne village and made by bachmann,they were licensed in the 2000`s i believe,the locos work well but do not justify their price as most limited editions are only a title,and not really limited,ken
