THANK YOU from all of us at Menards!

Your idea of several identical cars with different numbers is a winner ! Your military stuff is GREAT!

I would suggest a run of a "gondola pack", of a minimum of four cars. The little ones like to put stuff in them.

Also sets numbered, but with no railroad name.....

Have a nice New Year!

Mark,

Please pass along mine as well as a ton of others' love of your O Gauge rolling stock and buildings to the folks there at Menard's!  I've been purchasing more of Menard's cars this year than any other O Gauge brand!

The price and quality are incredible in this day and age!  

Happy New Year to everyone there, now bring us a cool locomotive and caboose to pull this wonderful rolling stock!

Ed

Happy New Year to you Mark, your family and the whole Menards team!!!!

Thanks for the wonderful products and may the NewYear be prosperous .

Mike

Mark : Again thanks for all the great items your company has put out this year !! And also for the customer support team and you for all the extra help you've  done. Have a very Happy New Year, and I cant wait to see what comes  out next... Bob

Good Day Mark ,

Thanks for the new rolling stock and buildings! I look forward to viewing your offering in 2016.

One a side note.............how about a grain train?

Best Regards,

Frank  

Mark, we are certainly glad you guys are aboard.

Please say hello to John for me and here's wishing you guys all the best in 2016.

To the Menards family and employees.  Thanks for being an "O" gauge train supplier.

Makes me wish I still had a layout.

All the BEST in 2016.

Thank you and all the best for 2016!!

On an added note, extra points for not only having great O Gauge at incredible prices, Menards also has a NASCAR team!  

Definiely, THANK YOU!, for nifty buildings and affordable rolling stock.  I hope Menard's entry into this crazy hobby has been successful and rewarding, and continues to be so.   As others, I will wait for new offerings like a kid on Christmas morning.

Menard's, Thank you for becoming a player in the wonderful world of "O" Gauge Trains. Ever since you started posting on this forum, I anxiously await your announcements of new items being release. My only advice to you is to continue to ask yourselves, how can we make it better.

And THANK YOU for bringing into O gauge sorely needed Business Structures. I hope to see some more in 2016 - including where loading and unloading is done INSIDE the structure!

Now I wait for delivery of my cabinet factory and Sauerkraut factory. [Which could be made into a Lumber Distributor or Steel Distributor with an overhead gantry crane!

Mark, John, and Jim....Let me add my thanks to all of you and everyone at Menard's for the very active support and interaction you have had here on the forum....especially when you are teasing us with hints of the next product.  Here is hoping that Menards as well as all of our sponsors, advertisers, members, and readers have a Happy New Year!

All the Best!

Alan

And thank You for a great addition to the O gauge family. May 2016 be just as wonderful.

Thank you to all the folks at Menards for a really fun year.  I wish you all a very Happy, healthy and prosperous  year in 2016.

Ed

Thank you!  And thanks for the great looking box cars that I just received. Nice trains, nice price! 

Mark, you know from other posts I've had how I feel about Menards and about you as their representative! The products constantly improve and remain great quality at very reasonable prices! But, given all that, the very best thing about Menards is that you are a company that knows how to do business! This business model inspires confidence and customer loyalty! I also look forward to your offerings in this new year! My Dear wife, not so much!!!

As a long time customer of Menards I have come to trust the products you sell. Whether it's lumber, power tools, peanut butter or flannel shirts, it's all good quality   merchandise  

Add in O Gauge trains and I am very interested to see how this all plays out. 

Those in the Chicago area will remember Mike Moore at Town House TV and Appliance. It was fun to walk past the washers and dryers and get to the train department. Could a train kiosk be somewhete in the future?

Hi Mark, I was just in Dickinsen, Nd. at one of your stores when I visited my in-laws. At that time I did not know you sold trains or I would have been all over it. I love what you offer at the great price you do. Wonderful rolling stock and buildings. The one thing I wish was that everything on your web site could be ordered. I hope you and the Menards family have a great and successful 2016!

Mike

P.S. We need a Menards near the Seattle, Wa. area.

Hi Mark  I really think you should get a booth at York. I think you would sell a ton of your products to us East Coasters who like to see a product in the flesh before buying. Plus, think of all the train buffs who would get to thank you in person for helping the hobby!

I just came home from the Marion, OH Menards today with some O72 curves (special order) and some straights. Seem to be pretty good quality. Thank you.

One thing I wanted to mention that I noticed today. While I was in Menards buying my track, I wanted to pick up some #4 pan head screws to screw down my new track. Well even after asking an associate, that store did not carry them. It might be a good idea to have some of these in the store, perhaps even next to the track on the shelf? I know this is minor, but just thought you might care to know.

I passed on some boxcars today in Menards, and I have been regretting it ever since I left. I'm about ready to go back and get them! They looked great, especially for the price point. Thanks again for all you've done.

Thank you for all the great trains.  I was able to get one of the inexpensive flat cars that came plain(no load), but I did enjoy looking at all the other great cars.  Hopefully next year I might be able to afford one of the cars with loads.   Best wishes for 2016  Mike

I wish you all the best of luck in the coming New Year. I am certain your product will get better and better as time goes on.

Thanks for the great product and see what you can do about getting the 27 car in the Chase in 2016.

Chase?  as in NASCAR?

Mark, may you and your family have a happy, safe and prosperous 2016.  Happy new year!

Mark, thank you for keeping us informed and being a great liaison for Menards to us on the forum. It has been unique to be able to give feedback on products here and get a response from a company representative so quickly.  Thank you for trying to keep us happy. Hope you and your family have a wonderful New Year. And keep on keeping most of us on the edge of our seats for the next new items!!!!!! Happy New Year.

Happy New Year, Mark and thank you for the contributions Menard's has made to the Model Trains Hobby!  I was just at the Menard's in Massilon, Ohio and saw some really nice built-up buildings in O Gauge, but I model in S Scale.  Will 2016 be the year we see you making some inroads into the S Scale market?  I would love to have Jack the German Shepard find a spot on my layout to call home!

Mike A.

Menards, welcome to the family and than you for your AWESOME contribution to the worlds greatest hobby.  looking forward to 2016 offerings.

thank you

No long speech.

Just a thank you for some really nice products at affordable prices.

Jim

Menards can have the factory make 1/64th Scale models of the ACF Center Flow 4600 Cubic Foot Capacity 3-bay covered hopper and Pullman-Standard 4750 Cubic Foot Capacity 3-bay covered hoppers then put them on S gauge trucks for S scale operators and O gauge trucks to operate with similar sized traditional O Gauge freight cars.

Menards: "hey, thanks for letting us be one of the most interactive manufactures on the forums and letting us offer awesome products at reasonable prices"

Me:  No, thank you, for doing so much more than you have to.   

I do see how my comment could be confusing, but I suspect that anyone that has seem my comments on other Menards related posts knows that I fully support what they are doing and wish Mark and everyone else at Menards all the best.  

JGL

John, thank you for clarifying. I was confused also, especially after some of your previous comments that supported Menards products. It was your "No" that threw many of us off I think. Happy New Year to you too.

I also welcome the new and affordable O scale buildings. The burned-down engine house is a winner in my book!
