Here's a set of 2 Tyco Log Cars.

Not that I pay much attention to freight cars, but I don't think I've ever seen those Tyco log cars before. Quite the colour on them! I assume they dump the logs on that accessory?
Beautiful vintage set Frank!

Those log cars are bombda. Sort of a cross between
PC green and glow in the dark. I got one years ago
that accelerated my downward fall into Tycomania.
Surprisingly, it tracks better than most things
I've run by Tyco.
A fine vintage set, Frank.

Actually, DaCheez, those Tyco log cars are non-operating....they don't dump logs, rather they are supposed to have little chains that hold the logs down to the car, which are long gone. These log cars are somewhat harder to find, at least in my experience.
You're thinking of the Log Dump car pictured below, I have 2 in my collection, which work with the powered Log Dump accessory.

Yep, well, that was RETRO TYCO I....and it was removed later on, after this photo was taken.

I'm all about Tyco but have some Life-Like and a few AHM pieces, as I did on my layout when I was young! Maybe a Bachmann piece or two including my Cat Chow car.

I was making the joke because retro Tyco is strictly Tyco
