Menards New U.S Military Flatcar with Generator pictures

Is that Harvey Hotwatts ?!?

As always, nice pictures Dad! Trying to get you used to the idea of an adopted son! LOL

Bob, nice looking car. Your pics show the car off great. Although PLAYTRAINS got in ahead of me where would the adoption paper forms be. Just incase I may have a shot LOL................Paul

Dear brother Paul! Just trying to get used to the sound of that! LOL

I see how you guys are! I go on vacation and you 2 move right in! Good luck to you both, Bob has a big heart! You 2 just might make it. Lol

How about some in MOW?

Flipping a coin...........

Nice car,  but on the fence with this one.   I would have to reletter it from Electrical Engineers to the 249th Engineers Battalion(Prime Power) in today's Army.

These fantasy military loads are going to drive me over to the 3 R's forum!

But then,  I have to remind myself of something a good friend told me years ago - "Remember all this stuff runs on three rails!

What are the trucks like on this car?

Grampstrains,

Our 14-3/4" flatcars come with our fully sprung trucks. They are all die-cast and have a steel swing-type drawbar. This makes navigating O-27 curves a breeze!

Having the gen set as a detail piece by itself would be nice.

Wily E would buy one for his layout if it was painted ACME!

Mark the Menard's guy,

   I have a money making suggestion for Menard's O Gauge Train Division.  Up grade your Trucks even further by making them Command Control compatible, at a reasonable price, with the Lionel Legacy Hand Held Remote Control.  Your rolling stock with this upgrade would make a big profit and assure Menards of repeat business on a large scale.

All the best buddy,

PCRR/Dave

Once again, a home run for Menards. A very nicely detailed generator and very bright lites makes this flatcar stand out from any other flatcar in its class..

Great Pictures Bob, Just might have to pull the trigger on this one! I would be careful with running the spot lights to much! Paul and Play Trains might figure out where you live and move in one day while your at work!
