Starting off the week, Here's my SOTW.
A local consignment place has had a Super Turbo Train for about a year. This is the same place I got my US-1 track from.
I had the original Turbo Train as a kid, but always wanted this one and the one with the jump.
I paid $40 for it. Everything is there. Train runs after a bit of contact cleaning, but as you can see, the traction tires need help, but that's the only thing.
Anyone have some spare tires? :P

 My tank car set shouldered by a Hobbytown E33 today. Great pics of the Turbo Train. Remarkable piece.

That looks like a fun plaything Eric, the way you got the highway with the hot cars potentially screamin' underneath that rocket of a train . . . wiz!
