In August of 2017, I posted here looking for a specific MTH engine.
"I'm looking for an MTH 20-20255-2 CalTrain O Scale Premier F40PH Diesel Engine. Cab #908 Redwood City. http://mthtrains.com/20-20255-2. Any leads are appreciated, thanks!"

Well, sure enough, this unicorn popped up on eBay just over a week ago. I couldn't be more excited about receiving this engine today. Born in Redwood City and growing up on the peninsula, I'd see (and often ride) these F40's daily. The new electric CalTrains are going live soon and the F40PH workhorses will unfortunately go away.

If the seller is on this forum... Thank You, sir.

Always cool to find a unicorn.

I picked up one of mine earlier this year.  It was paired with a Railking streetcar (which I will eventually sell), but I didn't care.  I would have paid what I paid for the auction just to get the car.  It is the last MTH 36' Premier woodsided reefer that I didn't have at least one of.  MTH generally made 2 road numbers of each car, so I am still looking for a bunch of the road numbers of cars that I don't have.
