Bill,
Cabinet Bob's correct. Our very first Menards exclusive flatcar was built by Lionel in 2007. However, we have been selling train sets in our stores for many years.
We have really expanded upon our selection over the last couple of years. I am excited for things to come!

Your gondolas with coal loads are just super. I thought about putting some real coal loads in them but couldn't find any that would fit. Any chance Menard's would get into the real coal load business, or does anyone have a helpful link to some?
I also thought about smearing the tacky glue on one of the ones that came with it, but need some more pulverized coal to stick on it so it is not too over loaded. Any idea where to get that?
Dennis Brennan sells a few different sizes of coal.
Hey Bob, I hope your sitting down. I see Mark the train guy from Menards was here and no release! Guess you will have to wait till next week. But on the bright side, it will give you more room on your card for more stuff!
This looks pretty good....

The first time I became aware of Menards sets was the Wisconsin Central passenger set, 6-30072.
