Just want to know what anyone does with their MTH club boxcar. Should I leave it alone or make it a candidate for the custom paint and decal route? They are not collectible (at least to me) They are decent looking as is. Does anyone actually run it or does it just collect dust? Mine was given to me.

I have no interest in "special" cars like this. I would bash it unless I found someone willing to trade for something equally bash-able.  My grandfather did have some, but didn't really collect them, but would buy and display them just to show active support for his clubs. Like buying a flag, flower, or whatever from a cause, it was more like a donation with a small prize attached.

Yes well It is rather risky to disclose your personal photo on the interweb these days. Well I will try my best to sully his good name.
