I wanted to talk with Mike about some of my tinplate ideas; but he has been so focused on the parts venture and getting the issues resolved from the move. here are some of my ideas.
1) I would like him to make some 300 series passenger cars in purple. He should call this set "The Wolf" and name each car after his wife, daughter, mom and dad. This would be a way to honor those who have been around him and supported his model train venture. There was already a smaller steam engine in purple this would give those customers a chance to add passengers. I would think a 318E engine would be a nice thing to add to that.
2)I would like to see a larger State Set 381, a super 381 or Brute in purple. This set should be called "The Big Bad Wolf" once again honoring his family with the car names.
3)I would love to see an Ives 3245 in Ives red, copper like the Prosperity Special and Chrome. All traditional Ives colors in a totally new offering.
4)The same thing colors can be done with 3236's.
5)American Freedom Train 400E
