I had 21 boxes of train stuff before I got the room for a layout, and I could find anything mentioned in less than 5 minutes...

My car of the week actually came from CHOPS from some of his overstock. It's an AHM 6 dome tank car that I cleaned up and made a couple of small repairs,added some weight and Kadee's. Thanks again Jeffery.
