Will Menards attend the Milwaukee Trainfest in November 2016? Would seem to be a great outlet for your merchandise and in Menards "backyard"! But maybe has been considered but decided not to?

rrman,
I do agree that it would be a wonderful outlet for us. Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you but thanks for asking!

Should boot it up to higher level. Try it for one year and see what happns. Or a table with samples to see then direct people to Menards website to buy, so you don't have to drag umpteen cartons plus requiring paid Menards help.
Mark, come to York in the fall and I will work for nothing! Ok, maybe a few "free" samples!!
Current OGR issue shows many three dome tankcars, including, I think, a modern GATX. Delete two domes and put Bettendorf trucks on a tank car, and some of your other cars. I am tired of changing out the modern trucks, and the extra expense. Yes, I realize...maybe the market and your sources can't support that extra cost....just a thought. Others on here too have posted that they would buy a fleet of plain-Jane black GATX or UTLX tank cars from the past oil boom.
