Bob, a pleasure to meet you, I am a home shop machinist, have a mower repair shop and do machining also, I have learned from a few fellows like you who were real machinist, not a fellow that calls himself a machinist that presses a button to make a part, I have never met a tool and Die maker that would have been the ultimate, hope you post someday some of your workmanship, will check out you all page on the net, Joe

Hi Bob,
Wow, I just watched a video of a McCoy hand car scooting around a track. The passenger is eating his lunch and there is an apple and a banana in the lunchbox! If you have any pictures of manufacturing the McCoy train cars and parts that you could share, I'd love to see them.
Best,
Gregg
