MTH'S S-GAUGE CARS HAVE ARRIVED

That's right. Memberships are renewed once a year and the premium for the current year (2014) is the ore car. As Mike A said you can buy the B&O boxcar and other prior year cars (no other S gauge cars as 2013 was the first year) as a member of the club.

Hi I spoke to soon the mail Lady just drop off my Baltimore and Ohio box car, hope you get your soon, the quality of the MTH car are just great, I received the first realease cars last week so far so good.

Got my Car just yesterday.

Well, it finally came today.  It is nice.  Very crisp lettering & looks to be as well done as the SHS boxcars.  Curiously, mine is painted silver on the inside - I think someone said theirs was white.  Hope everyone else gets theirs! 

Now I can't wait to see what the other cars I have on order look like.  This is not helping my TBA (train buying addiction)!

Mike...I too received my car today. Excellent model. Yes the inside is painted silver and I assume they painted the entire inside and outside of the car silver and then added the blue band on the outside. Very well done.

I'm looking forward to receiving the billboard reefers as the graphics look great on the catalog pics.

Just picked up the NH and the B&M on Ebay; $45 each--buy it now.

Can't beat the price.

I got my car in Friday's mail. It looks just like a S Helper Service car, which of course where the tooling came from, except I noticed the wheels are plated. I preferred the duller finish on the old SHS wheels, but that's a small concern, as any S product of this quality is most welcome.

I found this link on another S forum.  There are some great closeups of the B&O car taken by S Scale modeler Peter Van Vilet.  http://pmrr.org/Equipment/M55/index_LVL2_2.htm
