Welcome to the forum from another Joizey-ite.  With all of that Tyco in your resume, I'm sure you'll fit right in.

Canadian, but lived in Princeton, and Kendall Park for 5 years and worked all over the Garden State. I've lived in several places in the world though I'm back in Canada now, and when I go, my ashes will be spread at Sandy Hook. My favourite place I've ever lived.

You know it's amazing, but till I posted here it never dawned on my how much TYCO I had growing up, I always wondered why I was the guy who defended TYCO all the time!

I have that PRR spotlight caboose and it's always been one of my favorites. I got it, a used Santa Fe switcher (how it got back in a brown box at K-Mart I don't know) and a Jell-O car for $10 on Saturday, May 28th in 1977. My dad was amazed because I got THREE items and that was one. The spotlight STILL works to this day. Don't ask me how I got those three for $10, but I remember that I did, and they have been my three favorites. I am pretty partial to that caboose.
