2020 Boxcars from Menards!

When is the Tide car being released????

They look great! 

I am interested in the Challenger box.

Wow they really look good BUT proposition 65 prohibits shipping to California. OUCH!

UP express boxes went from Challenger to two tone grey then to yellow and grey.  Interested in last two.

Hent05,

All boxcars produced after 2018, including these, are available to ship to California. There are about 30-40 boxcars that have the correct labeling. 

We've been proactive since the prop 65 came into effect and most everything released within that time span can be shipped to you. 

Unfortunately, the free box truck is not labeled in accordance to California's regulations.

Thank you,
Mark the Menards Train Guy

I got the B & M cars. They are sharp looking.

Re: Proposition 65.  What ever happened to the Freedom of Choice that Americans once enjoyed in the USofA from sea to shining sea?

You can't help but wonder what the Founding Fathers would think if they could see what is going on today in the USA. 

United We Stand, Divided We Fall?  Gads, what a thought......

P.S.  A message for Mark, the Menards Train Guy: Who determines which road names will be used on the rolling stock? 

Thanks Menard for the clarity. Now let me try ordering some boxcars!

Yep, nice looking train there! Nice corsair, too--is it going on a strafing run on a rival road name?

No strafing. Training flight. Corsairs were made in my town of Stratford,  CT.

Very cool. I never could decide which was my favorite WWII fighter--corsairs or P-51s!

Corsairs! Fly Navy!

Nice selection of new additions to the Menards boxcar line. Placed order for a couple.

Would like to see a Spokane Portland & Seattle boxcar, would pull the trigger on a bunch of em.

Interested in when the Tide Boxcar will be released also. Will it make it to the stores or just online?

Thanks,

Jeff

Really? Again?! I had heard this was no longer an issue. In the beginning Menards did not have the correct warnings on the packaging.

Here we go again

Mark from Menards already addressed this about five posts above yours.   All is well.

Missed it🙄

What amazes me is that the colors on Menards freight cars are pretty much correct but Lionel on some things can't get it right, why?
