My COTW is a modified Tyco New Haven box car.

I swore no more Billboard cars. Now I have to have
a Doritos (thanks to Microbusss), now an Oreo (and
grapefruit juice????), and $#@Q %@Q$# % Fruit
Loops. NH orange box I have 32 of, last time I
counted.

Oh Heck. Add that cornflakes car to the $@#%@#%$@#
list. How in the world did you ever get Micro to part with
a Dorrito's? Was it blackmail or $$$?
Just when I thought I was out, they dragged me back...

Since we're "double-dipping", I found this last night and just could NOT pass it up. It's made by
a company called H&D and it's a 40 foot wood boxcar kit. What made it so "necessary" was the
company name and the product they sold.
Phartz & Howe and their product was "baked beans".
If you look real close, the words on the doors are "Gone with the Wind". Made it a gotta
have car.

Nice to see those cars found a good home, Micro. I gots
the coal loads you sent me, they are great. Thanks!!!
Who made that Kellogs, Ken? It looks like an AHM product,
which would be good, as then I won't have to search it out.
Very nice piece.
Got an order in from Hatton's, today, courtesy of the UK Model
Railway Forum who directed me to them. Even with shipping,
the price was no worse than buying US stuff, or "stuffs," as Micro
would say.
