For those of us who don't have a Menards in their area it's a real bummer that we can't order some items on line. I really like the new helicopter Coast Guard flat car and would order it if I could! Please! This is"NOT"a post about the wrong helicopter on the flat car or how the screws look on the deck! I'm just happy Menards is making some decent rolling stock at a better price point. I just can't order what I want! Update. Ask and you shall receive! Menards fixed the problem with the online ordering and I just ordered the Alaska flat with the Coast Guard chopper and one additional Alaska flat for another project. Thank you Menards!

I cannot attest to it working. Just thought it looked like it should work. If they ever start offering tin, I'll be in trouble.

I have ordered probably about a dozen train items on-line with no issues. Could be that specific item was shipped out 100% to the stores and there is none available at the DC.

No Menards here in the north east, but I hope I will be able to buy the Tubular Track online!
I'm excited about finally having a local menards & being able to ship to store for free. I can't leave their store without something train related, but it isn't a big deal...normally it isn't over $25!
Bummer that the flats with the helicopters are not available for online orders. I'd order one of each. There is also a long flat with a small Saturn Rocket model that I'd want, but that is also only available in store.
Hopefully these will be available online at a later date.

not sure what you are talking about. I was able to order the coast guard helo flat online.

Chris,
Bossman284 is right. We had a few glitches to work through this morning but everything is fixed and ready to go!
Thanks for you patience!

I was just there online and both coast guard and green helo are available online try again.
Chris, everything is working now.
Andy, the items that you mentioned were available online just now - go for it.
This is great! I'll get on the Menards app and place my order. Thanks Guy's.
Haven't dipped into the Menard's O Gauge pool yet but turns out that I'm going to be in Ohio this weekend visiting one of the college kids. Just checked and there are several Menard's in and around Columbus.
May have to stop by for some post-York train shopping.
I had the same problem last night about not available on-line. I just got my order in for a few of the new items. I'm glad to be able to continue adding to my military trains.
This is great! I'll get on the Menards app and place my order. Thanks Guy's.
Chris, perhaps you can edit the thread title to confirm that you were able to order on-line, and do the same for your opening comments. Just a suggestion to avoid confusion.

I did just that Carl. Thanks.
