A Marx coal hopper I picked up for a buck or two. Top Train opened my eyes to
Marx, from his World Class collection, and when I see it, I buy it. So often it
gets overlooked because of it's cast on brake wheels, and rudimentary styling,
but I have discovered that these pieces track awesome. Also, I find their
chunky, boxy lines most interesting. Thank you, Frank for getting me in-the-
know!

Buss, I didn't realize that Bubble Yum car was tough. I bought one years ago for my daughter. Think i paid a couple dollars at the most...
Here's my COTW offering... The 59' Tyco/Gilbert B&O cars. I don't have the correct engine to go with them, I use them behind my Gilbert B&O units. I have couple extra coaches that i put with the set to make it nicer...
