Thanks for the great photos again this week folks. My Saturday morning coffee goes great with Tinplate.
Fred,
Congratulations on finding a very nice set of Flyer Cars. I enjoyed the video. I have always focused my collecting efforts on putting together equipment as it appeared in the catalogs. When you matched up the cars from the early to mid 1920's with the #401 from the 1930's it looked great. It also got me started thinking (which is always dangerous). First of all I pulled out my set of cars that are like yours:
(BTW yours are in much better condition than mine)
and a second set of cars from the same era.
First I replicated the set you assembled for your video.
And then I started to get creative, using other engines from different eras and sets
You know, this collecting trains and playing with them is a lot of fun!
Now if I could get to some of the bigger train shows here in the States I might just find some European trains to add to my collection. (Oh no! That sounds like a very expensive proposition 
)
Thanks again folks for another great show.
Have a Great Tinplate weekend.
