Kirk R posted:Good thread and stimulating discussion. We each have fun in our own way and we all need a good laugh or some whimsy now and then. As for a non-stop commercial it would NOT make me buy Coors Light... it's one of the best light beers around but the genius at Coors is really their marketing.
Making this into an alien/Area 51 train sounds intriguing... who's got pictures or video??? With Halloween and spooky stuff around the corner it's a perfect opportunity.

This was the only picture I could find but I know he had a video as well. I cannot remember the details but he replaced the contents of the car and it was really cool to watch the doors come open to reveal the contents. I want to say they were aliens floating in chambers or something. This was done by a very talented member Keith, who has done a lot of customizations to the Polar Express cars as well.
I've always thought that the Lionel Batman Phantom would be a cool one to mod for an Alien theme as well.
