"It's got cop suspension... cop brakes..."
I just recently saw someone who had bought the real thing:
Mill City

Yes, Joe. Though, not easily found, and no wonder with production limited to 500 case per annum. Green Spot is a 9 year old double wood. Famed Yellow Spot, a 12 year triple wood, last bottled in the 50's, should hit the shores soon. There was once a Red Spot to round out the range.
These brands are of the Midleton Distillery family of Cork, Ireland. I can strongly recommend any of these to those that enjoy triple distilled whisky. My go-to is the Jameson 12 year. Expect to drop 60 to 80 green spots for the Green Spot.
Received a hot wire foam cutter from the hot wire foam factory. Will come in handy when sculpting the landscape.
Just picked up the Lionel BN scale auto rack. Absolutely awesome that the doors open on each end and you can load it with cars. I think I'll be grabbing a few more of these soon seeing as though I just financed a few of the real ones.
just received a custom built by jerry white PRR shark in 2 rail. fantastic locomotive even has cab detail. also got my PRR and B&O 3rd rail sets in this week. both had some quality issues but Scott replaced several of the cars. so this was a great week for me.
Thanks Mill City
I have had Middleton(excellent) and Red Breast.
Never knew about the "Spot" ones will look for them.
If you have a COSTCO near you they have a 18 year old under the Kirkland label that is crazy affordable and really good.
To keep this Train related
On Friday and/or Saturday nights when my son and I run the trains I like to sip a Bourbon, Scotch, or Whiskey while Joey runs the trains Lately it has been more fun since we picked up those LionChief Locomotives!!!!
Thanks for the info!!!

And who said trains and adult beverages don't mix. Since my layout is all boxed up now, I can only enjoy the sipping aspect.
Thanks for the Kirkland tip. Unfortunately, the local Costco does not have an adult beverage department, but I'll check other locations. Two Gingers was developed by an entrepreneur here in Minneapolis and is serviceable considering the price-point.
Finally pulled the Big Boys caboose out. This is the last piece of rolling stock I bought, I love this caboose and it will look amazing behind my vision line big boy
I picked up a boxed Chicago Rivet 911-3 press outfit. This outfit is the functional equivalent of Lionel's ST-350 rivet press outfit.
I don't think it was ever used. Each of the fifteen tools came in it's own little cloth bag, gathered together into a larger one.
I have way too many trains for the size of my layout, so I procrastinate a lot about what I buy. Nothing of late has caught my fancy, so I am holding out for my wish list items:
I just bought a Lionel Reading T-1. I'd post a photo, but it hasn't arrived yet.
