The Latest & Final Package... - Super - 10-27-2017

The Latest & Final Package arrived today.

Miscellaneous stuff..

I have been amassing many parts, items and trains for the many customs and modifications I have in my head for the long cold winter ahead. These C-57's, the 135 and 180, are part of that. Personally I like the C57-135 (red side rods) because to me the cab looks better.

I am always surprised to see how well built the Plarail Gararge/Cases are and how long they will last. Something seldom seen anymore in this world of build em cheaper not better.

All the packages of new/old stock was quite a surprise. I always liked the way the original girder bridge looked like but after long deliberations, with myself, decided not to pursue one because of their age and possible brittleness. When I saw this one new in its package with a picture of it and the new red, crossing for a low opening bid, I placed that bid knowing that for sure it wouldn't last because all the others went for a lot more. To my surprise, on the day the auction ended, I received an Email say I won it for that low price. Wow, I logged in the check it out again and discovered that I missed all the other pictures showing all this other new/old stock packages came with it...double shock. Note to Sellers: Its beneficial to have your main picture show everything in your Listing to drive more views. Got to go and set that bridge up.

You know, as many times as I’ve looked at those various C57s, it’s only now that I realize just how different they are!

@Action Chugger
That doesn't look like me at all...and neither does Bill Murray Angry

@OffTheRails
I believe there is one more version if not more. The C57-1 has what looks like some kind of baffle on its smoke stack. Don't know what that is but I did know it wasn't the look I needed.
