WOW What a haul! Looks like you won the lottery!

Nice to see I'm not the only "black tank car" freak! :twisted: (According to my inventory I have 90 of 'em.) :cry:

Good Lord, that's a treasure trove of rolling stock!

That's a great "Oh yeah!, I forgot!!" moment.

Better than finding 20 bucks in a coat pocket.

 

[viperman]

Man, I can't even afford one train car, let alone 25lbs of them

 

[RonP]

It all makes me think, back order. How long did it take to get to your house if you forgot about it lol.

 

[hickstmj]

Wow, awesome surprise.

I wish I would get 25lb presents like that more often.:mrgreen: "hint, hint, to anyone who might read this and want to get me something" :thumb: Looks like a good haul. Personally I would have a hard time forgetting about an order like that. If I spent that kind of money on that much stuff I would be checking the tracking number almost daily to see where it is at.

Nice haul,I too love those black tank cars especially the Cargill ones with the old logo.

Man! What a nice 25lb box to get! And I thought I had a lot of railroad stuff! Of course, I got almost all of stuff on e-bay. My wife and I went to Hobby Lobby last Friday, and I wasn't too impressed. Later, we went to a hobby shop that was going to quit selling trains. We spent over $200.00 and got about $500.00 worth of stuff. All of it new. We picked up a new, complete NYC passenger train that is probably worth about $200.00 or more for only $100.00.

Trucklover, who is the builder of that UP gondola I see? Not because of it having UP on it but because of the type of car it is. I would love to find me a whole set of these in lease name's as well as KCS and the smooth rib side ones with RailGon on them for a prototype train I would like to build. Look's like Christmas came early for you! Those are some sharp lookin' item's in that delivery.:thumb: Now, next time you see your UPS driver, tell him to bring me a box full like that! sign1

Chessie ~~ hehehehe thanks :mrgreen:

Riverrotter ~~ Nice!!! Maybe ill work my way up to that

Deckroid ~~ it was like opening a treasure box :twisted: it just seemed to keep going down and down and down

Steven ~~ If it makes you feel any better i got deals on all of them :mrgreen:

Ron ~~ No backorders here lol, this was all from a private party, it was $650 for all of this so it took me a little while to pay for it all, sent him a few money orders instead of 1 lol

Mike ~~ hehehehhe well it took almost 3 months to pay for all of this so when he finally sent me an e-mail 2 weeks ago saying he had shipped it i got caught up in work and came home monday and it was a complete surprise to see that MASSIVE box sitting there on the porch :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Steve ~~ me too :mrgreen: I think those are my favs, i wish i could have gotten a few more of them instead of the ADM ones lol

Carl ~~ Thanks :mrgreen: And it looks like you found some nice deals too :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

KCS ~~ hehehehehe i thought so too, i was amazed at some of the stuff i pulled out of the box

the UP Gondola is made by E & C Shops :thumb: :thumb:
