It seems Walthers donated an entire PRR Broadway Limited trainset to the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum.
It's good to see companies doing good for the community and history.

Way to go Walthers!
Yeah, I'll go a couple thumbs-up on that.... specially since they had the good taste to make it PRR.... not that I'm particularly biased or nothin'...

I am part of a group organizing a train show in the spring, and the level of support we have been getting from model railroad manufacturers and hobby shops for our raffle table is amazing.
Lionel donated a train set (Pennsylvania Flyer) without being asked for that, just a freight car or two would have been good. Other companies like Exactrail, Intermountain, and so on. VIA Rail donated a round trip for two.
A local discount store donated 5000 bags, and a gift certificate too.
Proceeds from the raffle will support a residence at the hospital for families to stay at while their children recieve treatment for serious issues (life limiting illness, pain management, end-of-life care), so I am hoping that the raffle is a big success.

Man, you must have been really tired, after sitting there with 5,000 bags under your eyes...
