Thanks.

Maybe next year Lionel will do a Bow Tie version for you.

Very nice car, Craig!  But I don't think it's prototypical. On the real Fathers Day boxcar the family picture is on the right side. 

TSK! How could they get this wrong!?

You are right. I checked on the internet and it's not prototypical, not even scale. I am going to send in back to Lionel with a strongly worded note, and ask them to move it to the right, and make the car to scale.

Thanks for pointing this out.

I was interested in these cars for my 75th Anniversary of D Day Commemorative Army train ™ which is coming up in 2 years.  The Menards flat cars with Jeeps are on their way this week as well.

Did you get an answer back from Lionel yet?

Wow. That's a great car.

Thank you for your service Corporal.

I can't imagine what you went through, but thank God for you and the others that stamped out Nazi fascism and kept our country safe. 

Couldn't resist last years personalized Christmas car. Went with a Lionel theme.  The arrangement of logos on the left side looks very familiar...

That's good.  Just don't take a hammer to it!
