Yep, bought a "new"1986 Berkshire from my LHS (in 2014), (he said it was new), I bought it because it was a Louisville & Nashville engine. Getting it home, I took it out of the box, the Styrofoam inside the box was upside down and before I knew it the engine was hitting my toe and then the floor. Yes a little damage to the top of the engine, no doubt, the toe cushioned the fall, thus the small amount of damage.
