I forgot ordered this car MTH CLUB ...

And it's beautiful thanks MTH  ...

Tinplate tradition yes indeed.

You can't beat the toylike charm of tinplate trains.  But whether it's tinplate or scale models, we're all gonna hear two common themes in the coming weeks/months... Namely (1) "I forgot I even ordered this!", and (2) "I forgot which dealer I pre-ordered such-and-such train item from... and for what price!!!".  

Time has a way of doing that to us.

I just hope my dealer hasn't forgotten. My credit card has probably expired by now and he'll need to call for an update.

and also an interesting shelf design - looks like white pegboard with metal supports and maybe 1" x 4" painted pine boards ?

correct,pegboard mounted on furring strips,then L brackets on 1x4's work great and cost effective !

Let's hope he does. When that happened to me years ago, someone at Charles Ro just cancelled my order and did not even bother to contact me. Took me a long time to order from them again.
