TBX is finally collected by one of the few remaining Montana Central H15-44's number 1506 after the loco failed yesterday. Train heads south to the interchange with the Burlington Northern at Big Timber before heading to park up at Glendive yard while awaiting a train to....... tbc Final view as TBX 30500 departs for pastures new.
Ok what the status of the two cars!i know TBX 30500 is about to be shipped across the pond from UK to USA so where is TBX 82015?
Paul, Matt has been asking where the car is going next. He has not yet been given a recipient's address yet.
Seems as though there almost needs to be something such as old luggage travel stickers used here. That could be an interesting accumulation.
Do we have an approximate order in which participants will receive their cars? Could that general order be posted in this thread, so we can have a "ball park" estimate of when the car(s) will be on our layout and can schedule our holiday activities accordingly? And for security purposes, could each participant hash out the details like addresses, tracking numbers, and shipping arrangements with the participant just before and after them by sending private messages to the specific participants with a cc to Paul and Paul for centralized management of the overall process? Matt: I'm in Illinois...is 30500 already on its way to me or to someone else in Illinois?
I do not know where this car is at the moment. I tried to contact the last person to have it, but haven't heard from them.
We had this happen with an N scale car, about ten years back. Took an enormous effort to track it down and get it back.
TBX 30500 arrived safe and sound in Central Illinois today. [Thanks, StickyMonk!] Over the next few days, I'll post pics of its movements in the area. Paul and Paul: please private message me contact information (TB screen name and/or name, mailing address) of the next person to receive TBX 30500.
