Well that was certainly a surprise package that came in the mail!
Mr. Muffin and Jeff (don't know his bread/pastry designation
) are class acts!
Agee…..Class Acts! Thank you very much!
I received a package too. What a nice gesture!
Thanks, Steve and Jeff, this gift was very nice of you.

Glad i saw this on the forum first. I would have been scratching my head at the mailbox a few minutes ago. LOL. Very thoughtful indeed. Its the small gestures in life that make one's day better.

When did chamois become shammy? I'm so out of touch....
Mister Muffin is OK in my book Thanks Steve Now I have to order another engine
Awesome PR !!! A Big Thank You to the Muffins !!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Appreciated my trip to the mailbox today.
Mine arrived yesterday as well. I was trying to figure out what exactly what had come, small box, I had question marks floating above my head. Opened it up, surprise. Thanks Steve @MrMuffin'sTrains.
Received this gift too from Mr. Muffins! Thanks Steve and Jeff!
Yeah I was pretty shocked thought someone got ahold of my CC but good ole @MrMuffin'sTrains thanks a bunch.
Fascinating business decision.
Last time I can recall getting any train item free, without requiring a paid train club membership, was when Maury Klein (K-Line) would give free stuff away in the Purple Hall at every York event.
Even though in the short term Mr. Muffin loses money paying for product (normally $10 retail) and shipping, long-term benefits may accrue like a) great PR, b) good feelings about MM engendered from customers translating to increased sales, and c) exposure of new Mega-Steam cleaning product that otherwise would not have been exposed to the masses.
Hmmm. Haven't seen mine yet. And yes I do purchase a lot (too much? - can you really say that) from MM.
In a previous year, Steve sent soft-bristled (cosmetic type) dust brushes to kickoff the fall train season. Another year, he sent bottles of holiday scented smoke fluid. Always appreciated.
