Don't know much about the Toy Train Collectors Society, but they had this series of tinplate made, one a year from 1981 thru 1986. Cars are sized similar to Lionel 800/2800 series.

Neat stuff Steve. But they are so SMALL (STD gauge joke)
Jim
those are some nice looking cars. Thanks Steve.
TTCS, if it's the same organization, is still active in Upstate New York (mostly western and central--Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Binghamtom, Elmira). They ran the biggest train shows in the area during the 1980s and 1990s. Now much smaller shows, but close to a dozen a year throughout the region.
