I hope we're not waiting all this time for a caboose! I remember one Christmas as a kid waiting for a 2 wheel bike! All excited from November on! When it came it was broken! And not the bike I was expecting anyway! Years of therapy to deal with that! LOL

I really hope therapy helped you, you MAY, need it again sometime..LOL..

Thanks to all for responses re: Santa Fe boxcar.  I don't live in a state served by Menard's but my sister-in-law does.  I will call the store close to her and see if I get lucky.  If not, I will be in touch with the very generous Cabinet_Bob.

I can't remember for sure, but didn't that Santa Fe boxcar come out after the stores were already stocked for the holiday season or even after the season was over? If that was the case, they wouldn't be in the stores at all, since Menards doesn't stock new releases after a certain point. Mark, do you know?

It was around the same time last year (early to mid October). We released the Santa Fe boxcar a couple weeks before they arrived at the stores. Unfortunately, it is hard to track down the remaining store inventory because there are so few of them out there.

Good Afternoon Mark,

Could you please give us an update on the delivery time of this product? Also, could we please have another clue?

Beware of the dwarf.  Foul Play is afoot.
