Bill, unless you're looking for something specific to the Wabash 21" set, take a look at my "first look" Texas Special thread from last week. There are pics of the packaging there.
My Texas Special set came from Charlie Ro with an outer shipping carton that was created from the 4-pack's shipper, then extended a bit to hold the 2-pack product carton as well. So everything arrived in one outer box, if you follow what I'm describing. And I'm sure Charlie's crack shipping staff used the 2-pack's outer shipping carton for other product they were shipping.
Each car is wrapped in clear plastic, and then inserted into white PLASTIC liners -- not foam as with prior products. All cars are visible through window cut-outs in their respective product cartons. The 4-pack has window cut-outs on both sides of the product box: 2 in front, 2 in back. The 2-pack only has window cut-outs in the front of the 2-pack product box. The cars are not boxed individually anymore.
Hope that helps.
David
