Hi All:
If you read my message under HO Tour Car Information, you know I was more than surprised when the car arrived and I found its contents was "gator nuggets". Here we are in San Bernadino, CA and we needed to get the gator nuggets to Denver.

Santa Fe 3503 was sent to pick up the car and head to the ice house.

Once at the ice house, it was determined that a better container was needed to keep the gator nuggets refrigerated so the guys built a sturdy box, lined it with foam, and then filled it with ice for it trip to Denver.

Once the car was iced it was moved to a holding track near the San Bernadino Depot to wait for the 4111 Cab Forward Freight to pick it up on its way to Denver.

#4111 arrived on time but surprised to find they had an additional pickup that would require an extra stop for more ice along the way.

#4111 moved out of the way, and #3503 moved the Tour Car in place.
