My Set of the Week this week is the Mehano Thunderbolt Express Hostess Set. This one is the blue box. There also exists a yellow box, same inventory. They curiously have a generic Santa Fe set pictured on the box artwork instead of the actual train. This was a promo set sometime in the 1990s or 2000s, I don't have an exact date. Very minty - just got it delivered to my door today!

What?! First the life like gravy train, now this? Nice find, though.

"A lot of modellers out there who go to these train shows see broken HO stuff and go, 'This is useless' when, in reality, they can still be used for modeling whether it's as a prop on your layout or a cool project to make something old new again."
