Survey: That one gift this Christmas
Posted by Munster518 on Sunday, December 18, 2005 2:24 PM

Besides asking for the usual gifts, cds, dvds, clothes etc etc, whats the one train gift your asking for? Or, whats going to be that one item to be bought right after the holidays if not recieved on christmas?
My one gift this holiday season is the MTH trainmaster in the jersey central paint scheme. I had a chance to see one at the local hobby shop, so hopefully Ive been a good boy this year[:D]. Lets hear your story



Sincerely
John

John ,
A few on my list and I know that she has gotten them already[:)]. One is the NYC Docksider, then the Cracker Barrel lighted store for the layout. Lastly was an add on, the Williams GG1 that came out this past issue of CTT. My birthday is in January, so I have a Polar Express set on that list as well as the Pennsy Flyer passenger expansion pack.

My one wish is lots of box cars full of grits and tanker laods of sweet ice tea for all of my Yankee buddies. [;)] My next wish is my youngest and the wife to finish cleaning out their junk so I cn go to work on my layout. [:(!][:0]

I asked my dad for the new Lionel PWC Virginan set with the 6557 smoking caboose. I hope I get it.

My wish is never to see any GRITS above the Mason Dixon line.

An 275 W MRC dual controller. I have it on good authority that one will be under the tree. I bought myself a Williams 671 as a birthday/Christmas gift with my bonus money. That should be here this week.
