Two Pyrofax Bottled Gas Tank Cars

Now I have 2 Pyrofax Bottled Gas tank cars road numbers 1366 and 1367 they really dress up the look of the Ann Arbor freight train. All I need to do now is to pick up the GP38 locomotive that I have in for repair at Brasseur's Electric Trains in Saginaw Michigan. Then the Ann Arbor freight train will be considered complete. it consists of 3 GP38 locomotives 4 boxcars 2 tank cars 2 3 bay covered hoppers 2 center flow covered hoppers 4 2 bay covered hoppers 4 coal cars 1 flat car with ends and a gondola. That's a lot of train.

New 11,000 Gallon Tank Car

After 2 weeks of camping I had accumulated enough pop cans to purchase an 11,000 gallon tank car at Mountain Town Hobbies in Mt. Pleasant Michigan. It is a Pyrofax Bottled Gas tank car road number #1366 that I am adding to my Ann Arbor freight train. I also put aside a matching car road number #1367. that I will pay for after we go camping again in three weeks. This will enhance the Ann Arbor freight train greatly and I will consider the freight train complete. I believe that Pyrofax Bottled Gas is part of Union Carbide.
