I want to congratulate all those that caught my mistake of putting "New York City" for NYC that should have been "New York Central"! on the Conrail car. In my defence (I have none, lol) when the Grab Bags are down to the wire and need to be published, I made the fatal error of not double checking all the tags. So I guess this Grab Bag is a "Special Edition" that will increase in value thru the years! Also, just remember, The NYC went to NYC, lol!
Thank you to the ladies at Tiny Tim's Trains & Toys. My kids were thrilled with the toys! We had a great time train watching at Ashland! Thank you, and I hope to return soon! 😊
Hi VRF, that was a great Grab Bag, thank you. Love all those Fallen Flags. I can run my HO Santa Fe Blue Bonnet SD40-2, my NS 'Operation Life Saver' GP and my Engelhard Hopper - no problems. Also, all my life since early childhood - my favourite vehicle has been and always will be - the Willys MB38.
More exciting train action for people who enjoy watching trains and I've been watching them for a long time Thank You Virtual Railfan Grab Bag.🤠👍 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
Here is some other words told to me by a Conductor when I was 10 years old. "Expect a train on any track or at any time in either direction". Words to live by indeed...... especially in yards. Be safe my friends.
Nice grab bag! Those BNSF SD70MACs show up on just about everything now, don't be surprised if their brand new ET44ACHs show up on more than just coal trains as well!
