Both of the former train cars were awesome - I especially like the Tyco AutoLoader with cars still sealed in the package!!
Here's my COTW offering:
Tyco Santa Fe RR Crane and Wreck Car (the only MOW equipment I currently have on my layout.)

Lindsay Ghost Car. Has one axle powered with a flywheeled 7 pole motor. Added extra pick ups to the non powered truck. Even came with a unbuilt 40' box car minus a floor and one end

Walt, I will sell my cat to Morrocan taxidermists and dance naked in the town square to get my hands on that Bubble Yum Box Car, second runner up, Piggy Back...
Until then I am going to post the World's Most Annoying Tyco Video on Sunday until you tell me where I can get my greasy mitts on that most elusive of Quarks...You have until SUNDAY!
