Thought I would check in as it has been awhile. I haven't been buying much Tyco this past year, as my wishlist is rather short nowadays. But in one week,I managed to get the Black Hooker Tank car - Mint in its promotional package, a Staley Tank car, that I had previously been unaware of (thanksGIC again formaking this project infinite), and a double logo Canada Dry boxcar. All of that won for less than what I bid on the stupid Dan's Trains auction for one Canada Dry (and I still lost that one!)
The Black Hooker sighting....Tank Car that is, has got me hopeful that if I stay vigilant, perhaps I will finish my list afterall. A few weeks back I did get a silver Piggy back with the Logo over "fe".
Maybe my luck is changing a lttle. All I really need (or can fit on the wall at this point) is a coule of Bubble Yum PB's, a white version of the CP Rail 50' Boxcar, and the Alcan CF Hopper. Thoe would bring some joy.
It was about this time last year I was finishing up my Slice of Woodbury wall display. I added about 12-15 since posting the pictures here on the forum. There are 278 unique pieces on display now, andI am enjoying the view still. Intersetingly enough, my wife and two older kid have no interest in the display and it is invisible to them, but my 4 year old notices if I add a piece or re-arrange something to accomodate a new find. He wil be named as sole beneficiary on all my life insurance :).
Hope all is well with everyone.
