During a recent trip back to Long Island I met @RSJB18 for lunch and a trip to Nassau Hobby (NH). NH has been busy doing custom runs with Lionel and MTH. These ore cars are by Lionel.

I believe they did 6 road numbers of each so I looked to see if any road number had personal significance. Nothing on the LIRR cars but 1983 on the NYC Transit car was the year I graduated from Manhattan College and probably the last year I that I used the subway on a fairly regular basis.

The Great South Bay Brewery car is a MTH Premier 36' foot reefer. It came in two road numbers, 2009 and a two digit number. Not knowing the significance of the two digit number I opted for 2009, I believe the year it was founded. Bob chose the same number.

This Weaver James Bay Pullman in NYC 20th Century Limmited attire goes with two other Weaver cars to run behind me Weaver brass 20th Century Hudson.
