The photo uploaded to the site of the Illuminated Bumper brought back a lot of memories as well. I'm not sure that track piece survived very far out of the First Generation either. It was a treat

Doug, Thanks. Looks like Model Power will also release the Gantry Crane kit sometimes this spring.?? I found another unusual N scale? structure kit at an old hobby shop here in NE. ?It is?a

This brings back a lot of memories. A similar set with the "147" steam loco was the Christmas gift that started me in N Scale. The cars were different. The Therm Ice tank car pictured with the set is
