Nice cars, guys. Frank, that's one that's eluded me so far. Also the vinegar and pickle cars. I'll have to stop looking at locos and search through more car kits at shows. Evan PS This is all I've found, to date.

Another completion item for me. The coach to go with my CPRR Combine.

And an no-road name clearance car to boot.

Getting my Mantua/Tyco old timer sets completed, piece by piece.

 Power House by Bachmann. It's only problem is it ain't Tyco, but then I am always a sucker for a pretty face. Lifted it off Tinplate Henry for $5.

Wow! That means that my Power House probably went up in value! Now I can flip it for $5.35. Hey, don't laugh, the steps aren't broken off and it (still) has a brake wheel.

Chrome's a good feature for tanks full of flammable liquid. Reflecting light away protects them from heating up in the sun - the shininess isn't just for show.
