"Just slap a beaver on it and it'll sell".

Well, that sounds like a winning formula for just about anything...!

Excellent.  I come from deep south pine tree territory.  Cars like that have run through here I think.

#1 complaint will be:

Loads don't look properly seasoned.

What if they run a batch of these in their weathered cars series?  You do know who does the weathering, right?  :trollface:

No, no guys... Atlas isn't doing this car.  It was just advertised by MTL in the latest NSE mag. 

Get your scoop in print first!

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Hey...back away from the beaver....... pick on the back bacon, maple syrup and the hockey all you want but you start messin with the beaver and we get uppity............ :D

Besides... you can't just "stick a beaver" on something and it will sell.... you have to paint it pretty colours THEN stick the beaver on it.... what y'all think we are up here, a bunch of yutz's or sumthin.....?

Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Nice choice Joe - I will likely be in for a few.  Now back to our beaver theme:

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
