Oh boy A decent Railroad lol.
No they all are decent railroads but here is one that interest me. I'm thinking a Hopper
Would be nice if Menards could get the old Ready made Trains mold for the engines they had

Your mean the best railroad!
something on a flatcar that so I can complain about scale
One of my items on my bucket list is to finally get a teaser right. But until then I will continue to guess. Throwing out the same old. Trailer on a flat car, hopper car. going off the cliff and hanging on by one finger a freight building with the NYC logo on it or could we see an engine with NYC on it. If by chance it is a hopper I will be in line for a bunch of them to go with my Menards power plant...............Paul
Its a building of some sort!
How about a pocket watch??
caboose
Maybe, a Pittsburgh and Lake Erie hopper.

I'm gonna have to guess a caboose since CNW and BNSF have already been released. Still waiting on an Army caboose!!!!!!!!!
I'm going with hoppers also.
Doug
Fire Truck....
One day, it will be a fire truck, and guess who will have FINALLY guessed correct-
Its another Caboose, Boxcar, Hopper, flatcar, or Tankcar. Hey I'm trying to win a free item...
A caboose! Really want an Army caboose and I'm sure it's coming! A Norfolk Southern or Pennsylvania would also be very welcome! Just sayin!
How about a stock car or a gon?Just my two sents.
It's boxcar time..

I hope you are right, but if you are not, I'm prob still gonna place an order
Maybe a new Scale flat car like the Pepsi flat that is great, it could use a brake handle however but overall very nice.
MENARDS has several stores in Michigan / I will go with a New York Central, Michigan Central - Refrigeration Car. See photo below, from my layout.

With the boiler enclosed like that, it must be like working in a foundry.

Not be sour grapes. Nice stuff but too modern for me. Looks like one of the axles is out of the truck.
I really like the Mt. Dew and Pepsi trucks. I'm not a fan of the free Lennox truck. That's not something that would look good on a layout. I'd rather have the free boxcar! I know, I'm complaining about something free. LOL.

These ran on city streets and covered so not to scare the horses or so the story goes.
As for the flat, I will be in for the 14" NYC flats minus loads when you get a round tuit.

Ya know, How is it that Menards can "bang out" these great rolling stock month after month, while those other guys create great Photoshop artist concepts then wait to see if there is enough interest before gearing up. Yes, granted those other guys have highly detailed and correct down to a rivet count (read $$$$), but for runners like me, I'll go the Menards route for variety, AND not worried if its dropped, compared to that $100+ limited run, rare, "shelf queen" piece that still in the box.
Menards of course is taking a risk in producing an RR item and hope it sells. Can you imagine Menards having just one of everything from lumber to hose washers, then waiting to see how many contractors or DIYers have an interest before Menards orders quantity?
But that me, your mileage may vary.
Bob, just wondering what came first the cabinet building or collecting so much Menards stuff? LOL
Love these new products (thinking small bottling plant)! Wondering the scale of the Lennox tractor trailer and if it would look good backed up to a building?
More cabooses I say!!!!
Menards offers freight cars in a lot of road names... Yet only has two cabooses.
And a TON of Army cars, but no caboose to go with them. Annoying. Lol!
I have to admit that I'm losing interest in flatcars with stuff stuck on them.
Dropping another hint for a Norfolk Southern hopper!
Would be nice to have anything Norfolk Southern! And don't forget the Army caboose! Pleaseeeee!
I am going to order one...it still needs a break wheel.
