I saw that the Tinlate club cars for 2010 are both hoppers,Both are very nice looking. They match the cars from this Year. They are cream with orange and blue grafics. Will have to get both just like this year. I am sure we will see Dap cars to match this years cars in 2010.

I wonder how many cars we will see before we see a Lionel Corp. Club engines.

I saw a picture of the DAP tinplate car on the MTH Facebook page. I am going to poll some train dealers and see if I can get one.

I'm also looking for a reasonably priced MTH/Ives 195 caboose. For a 6 year old piece of rolling stock it seems to still be commanding a $140 price tag plus shipping. Seems kind of high for a box that has been on a shelf for almost 6 years.

They do look good... Does anyone know when we can expect to receive this year's offerings?

I joined the tinplate club at York. I believe Jill told me that that cars would be available sometime in November.

I'm looking forward to the MTH car.

I didn't purchase the tinplate crane this year from the TCA. I thought it was too expensive and kind of lackluster for my layout. I was actually kind of saddened by the cost vs. reward. I really like my other TCA/MTH Tinplate offerings.

I really do like the Lionel car from MTH. The paint looks outstanding. Hopefully they'll develop this further with a whole set of cars and an engine (MTH).
