I would buy a Mopac Budd coach and ACF coach grill being produced by The Coach yard. This would complete my MOPAC train for my layout of passenger trains serving KC Union Station in the late 60's-March 71

Even though I model in O scale, I would buy the new FSM kit, put it in my will to my grandson, let him sell it to some HO guy in the year 2025 and retire on the proceeds![:D]

For my purple star, I would spend most of it on the return air fare to the hobby shop and hopefully have enough left for a packet of Details West grab irons. They're as common as rocking horse ***, over here.

I probably will use it to replace the wobbly plastic wheels with the fine metal wheel sets, upgrade the electronics to DCC, and perhaps some inprovements to the worktable. If there were any left over I probably will use it to pad the monthly allowance at the store.
