WOOHOO! Its Been A Long Time

[Super]

And now for the last item which in my opinion the best of the Lot. The very elusive D-51 882 First Try Set with some exclusive, this set only items. Besides the D-51 882 only found in this set there is the Gray Shed with Black Roof and the Switch point (I call it a close point) in gray that as far as I have seen is only available in the Tomy blue.

What is really odd about this release is that the front of the box shows a huge real D-51 Steam engine but its not the engine that is in the box. This engine on the front is not the D-51 882 but the D-51 498 whos Plarail version is a little easier to be found. Weird, wonder why they did that. I also wonder how many different First Try Sets they made. This is the second D-51 882 First Try Set I have, a great, rare, addition to anyones Steam Engine collection.



I really had fun taking my time with this big box of trains. I really don't see this happening any more for me but...who knows
