As I recall, MTL also produced a turkey car (noun, not adjective). I know that there is a turkey reefer: 518 00 050 You might want to want to look for these for next month.

That one is truly scarey.... Whoooh! Does anyone know if AZL made more than 1 set of 4 of the DRGW covered hoppers? Rob? I think 8 orange and black cars would provide sort of a "spine" for the rest of the rag-tag graffiti covered mess. Happy Halloween! Rory

Mark Thanks, Mark Just found a turkey car set of 2. Perhaps I can find some cars to go with it ...in fall leave colors. I remember a hopper that was in rich Carmel brown, at least Although, my budget is pretty much spent on the October train. Thanks again Rory

Some of your red, green (not all trees turn at same time), & yellow would work if mixed in with the box car brown & the turkey cars. I saw a Marklin Christmas car I really liked & the price was right but they wanted $44 for shipping from Germany! I don't think so. ☹️

How about an October, November, December Holiday train?
Take a car off the front ...near the engine every day.
...Add one to the back, every day.
Gradually go from orange to orange and red to ....red and green.
As cars move to the front they are taken off.
Sort of like a 31 car train calendar
When the Halloween car moves to right behind the engine, IT'S HALLOWEEN.
Then Thanksgiving, then Christmas...
