Mario's Trains is a forum sponsor.
I found that Mario's has all four WBB 44-Tonners in stock. These are the new versions that everyone has been interested in running and buying. You can find them on Mario's "weekly specials" page (so no coupons apply - they are priced at the best price). Since the price is in excess of $200, it includes free shipping. If out of state (not in VA), then I guess no tax either!

One other factoid... Free shipping generally applies to purchases greater than $200. If buying something that has a special coupon applicable, and the coupon makes the purchase price less than $200 (but before coupon it was over $200), then free shipping still applies. I get the special coupons in the weekly email; you can sign up for these from Mario's web site....
Have bought items from Mario's and have always had good service.
Thanks.
