My offering for today's 027 boxcar "session:"

I've posted this photo before but it's my oldest 027 car and I want to present my oldest to newest. It's a "first year" MPC from 1970. They appear to have spared just about EVERY expense to put these out. I got it for $23 NIB from Forum sponsor Graham's Trains and had to rework both couplers to get them to work on my uncoupler track.

Here's the box, front & back:

No inserts of any kind; just big enough to hold the car with the couplers turned under the car.

Car info was just rubber stamped, obviously hastily, on one end flap:

We've "recovered" quite a bit since then...
