That's a great car. We can assume that in this day and age, such a car would not be considered suitable for children! Kind of like the candy cigarettes we used to have.

I was wondering (being completely new here), has anyone figured out how many boxcars, etc. Tyco actually made? Is there a checklist somewhere, kind of like the bird-watchers use?

What are the real rarities?

This forum is actually directly related to Tony Cook's HO-Scale Trains Resource, in this case, the Tyco section. It is here:
http://tycotrain.tripod.com/tycotrains/

However, there may be a few pieces not on that site, as they are not known to exist yet!

I believe, the Mail Pouch, is the only Tyco car that I want, that I have not bought yet. Glad they are not too hard to find...
