So as I was cruising my favorite custom run website, I looked in their clearance section and saw something that made me jaw drop. It's not part of my Garden Railroad, but it is. See my families heritage is the Pennsylvania Railroad, my Grandfather and Great Grandfather both worked for them. This is a custom run Special Aristocraft 40 foot Boxcar that is painted to recognize the 100th Anniversary of the Pennsy Railroad. It's a piece that I am buying to put on a shelf with the occassional run in the garden. It's a family heritage piece to me. It's on USPS Priority Mail, Monday; Tuesday at the latest. But being that it's coming from Southern Illinois, it should be here very quickly. I didn't like paying IL Sales Tax, but for this, it's well worth it. Pictures via webcam when it arrives.
