    The Illinois car was the first in the series, so MTL may have been conservative in judging initial demand.
    Either that or speculators scooped them up, or...

    We could even come out with different versions (couplers / wheel sets). A whole new cottage industry!

    BIN of $25. Wow. It's clearly a joke. I wonder if some buddy of theirs challenged them to list it and see if this would sell?

    If he sells just one at the BIN of $25 he's $23.99 ahead of the game. Just lurking there waiting for someone with more money than sense.

    Who knows I might just get one for Father's day from my Wife. Combines both of my hobbies of fishing and model railroading. Now if I can just find a way to lay some track at the bottom of that Bass pond and run my loco underwater. Whole new aspect to trolling a lure.
