(03/14/17) New! Canadian Pacific Flatcar with Lumber Load from Menards!

just curious, but are those metal or plastic chains?

Not Mark but chain that fine must be metal......

They are metal chains.. Bob

Their flatcar with tarp has metal chains so I would think this would also.

Something  like this ?  LOL

Nice looking CP flatcar, I could see it here in Washington state , Idaho, montana, north Dakota.

Compassion reigns at Menards! This release today was for you Bob! LOL Beautiful car, just keep getting better and better!

Another looker from Menards!

Bob,

I smell prototype.  It doesn't look like that wood load is stained like the production version is.  Also, the flat car is Pennsylvania instead of CP Rail.

Stu

If you only knew..LOL

I really like the CP Rail version.... BUT given the sneak preview of the PRR version... I would much rather have that!  Will wait! 

If they do produce the Pennsylvania flat car with lumber load, it will sell like hot cakes

I agree its a nice looking car, but it would have to come with a BREWERY to fit in on the west coast!

Mike, I've got to compliment you,  you are focused and know what you want. Hang in there, sooner or later there will be a brewery.

LOL One day Steve! One Day!

I got the 'paint your own road name' version

Are those modern roller bearing, or older Bettendorf trucks?

Production model has older friction bearings. 

IMO these are better looking in person than the photos.

TShearer,

We would be happy to replace that for you if you'd like. Or, perhaps you'd like to put a different road name on there.
