If anyone got the just-delivered Flyer Reading caboose, can you post a photo or two of it? Thanks!

I am wondering if the Pierre Marquette caboose has been released, got one of those on order. C. R. may be waiting for more of ordered items to save on shipping costs.

Ray, check Charlie Ro's website & search for the P.M. caboose. It will either say "in stock" or give you an expected arrival date. 
Thanks Mark. Will try that. I have it on order, but it likely is being held back by the dealer until a couple of Christmas things I also ordered arrive.
It's not the Reading caboose, but the PM caboose and a Bunk Car are shown briefly on Trainworld's coverage at the NMRA National Train Show in KC.

And no, that's not a Legacy Berk sample.

Hi Mark,
I took them out of the box at Hennings, thought there were very good and now have them packed to run at the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum this weekend. I'll try to get shots there.

You mean me? 
Thanks. Maybe I can make it to the museum. Is it something special for both Saturday and Sunday?
Picked mine up a few days ago.

Super, Rich! Thank you! Can't wait until mine comes in, it is being held on reserve with a couple of Christmas-related items I still have on order.

I'll give the gang at the Circle L Ranch credit, when they do a paint job right they do it right.
If anything, it shows that Lionel really needs to up their Flyer game and restore the 930 caboose tooling to its former glory with ladders, collision posts and the "two step" steps.

The paint job looks excellent. Now if they could maybe get away from those flat-stamped handrails...?
