What did Santa bring me this year?

A Tiger Valley ALCO RSD-12 kit
A Proto 2000 53' AAR 50 ton flat car
Two Bachmann Silver Amfleet Phase II coaches
An NMRA Standards gauge

I also got a Golden Spike puzzle, some HO snowy pine trees, a Revell 1:25 '48 Ford Convertible kit, and then The Eagles's "Long Road Out of Eden" and Peter Cetera's "World Falling Down" to listen to while I work on all this great stuff.Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]

I know I'm behind here, but Santa (my beautiful wife) brought me the wireless conversion for my MRC Prodigy Advance. I am very excited about it and can't wait to truly break it in in January.

Train related; Bobs Hot Dog stand, two traffic signals, one crossing signal, two packs of people (full figured and farm), and a passenger car, all from my G/f.  Either she really loves me or she wants to get me out of the room to work on my trains :)
