Yah, yer right. That's pretty Canadian, eh?
South of the border, the term appears to be more related to Tequila.

John:
I have three of the engines, which in my opinion were the only good part of the sets.
One thing that happened here in southern Ontario was that a lot of show vendors started going into stores and buying a dozen or more sets for the purpose of profit, by inflating the price.
I have no idea why they were diccontinued.

From 1992 to 2006 up in Canada, Christmas meant the new PC Express trainset. Today at Christmas, the sets are just a memory (unless you plan to buy one from those auction sites). I wrote about the history of the PC sets, and how they became linked to Christmas, on my blog.
Anyone else have memories of those PC Express trains?
