True, Mike. |

Conveniently, there's no such country as "Brisket". |

Mike, yes exactly. Or French Fries being named "Freedom Fries" when France was opposed to some of the post-911 war activities. |

It will fit...I just might not be able to find it in all the clutter in there. |

I was about to guess that. Same as "frankfurters" being renamed "hot dogs" during WWI. |

I just read that as I was googling about the Marklin Mikado |

I just learned something. |

ha, me neither |
| 5-7 17:24:42 |

(since Mikado referred to the emperor of Japan, the 2-8-2's were referred to as MacArthur's during WW-II.) |
| 5-7 17:24:39 |
rvn2001

I've never heard it referred to as a MacArthur. |
| 5-7 17:23:39 |
DAZed
|
or a MacArthur. |
| 5-7 17:23:34 |

That's what I figured. |
| 5-7 17:22:57 |
rvn2001

That would make it a Mike (Mikado). |

The loco is not identified, but it loks like a 2-8-2 |
| 5-7 17:20:34 |

or an explosion |

or spills out on the rails and causes slipping |

Just watch to be sure that the sloshing in the tank car doesn't derail it.. |

Being Marklin, to keep things from stalling, I''m runing well above scale speed. The oil in the tanker is being sloshed around on the curves! |

It's a Marklin "regioanl" set, Thom. GN steam locomotive, gondola and caboose, plus a tank and box car. |
