My contribution to this week's COTW is an N scale Christmas caboose made by Micro-Trains in 1995. I know I'm a little late for posting a Christmas item but better late than never, right?

A most unique model of a Ferrocarril Pacifico baggage coach. Also
bears National de Mexico markings, making me think that this reflects
a N de M takeover. From the collection of El Paso Model Train Club president,
Mario Almeida.

Tramp, fantastic scores, first that sweet Geep and now a
Twinkie Boxcar. For me, this is pretty darn cool.

A couple of Model Power streamlined Budd passenger cars in PRR livery - a diner and a lounge/observation car.
These cars have full interiors and well-detailed trucks with metal wheelsets. I have a couple more of the diners - one in Amtrak and another undecorated, that I am going to decal for the L&N.

My COTW is also possibly a mistake car, picked up at the Greenberg show 10 days ago. I looked at it closely, and don't see any removal residue, so I think it came from the factory this way. Anyway, my car -

Love the snowplow! My friend Dave had one of those Ambroid plows on his layout, lettered Boston and Maine I believe, and when I used to visit, it was the only car I couldn't go near. Crazy possessive of it for some reason.
