I have wanted this refer since I saw it in the catalog,,,so at York I was able to pick it up at sidetrack hobbies ,they always take the time to cut out pictures and put them on the boxes ,makes it so easy to brouse,so I bought it got it home and hummmmmm not the same as the pix,,,i know the catalogue is just a reference but not close,,,just like the pennsy covered standard gon its black not the green in the catalogue,,,,but in the end glad they are making modern tinplate !
Yeah, I learned the same thing with my red 1685/1687 pass cars. The on line picks showed a good vibrant red but what showed up was nearly pink. It gives me pause with buying any more lionel corp mth stuff.
