I got my club car today. (ordered 6/10/22) The car looks fantastic, it was well worth the wait, it exceeds expectations. Thanks to Adam, and everyone else who played a part in this project. Brian would be happy to see our pictures. Below is the complete OGF train as it now stands…

These look GREAT!!! I have a string of these enroute, but UPS is giving me the run-around for two packages that should have been delivered YESTERDAY. They both arrived at the main UPS distribution depot here in Horsham, PA on 7/8 at 3:26AM. Both packages have repeatedly shown ETA's of 7/9 and then 7/10. Now one of them just shows delivery date is pending, and the other still shows an ETA of today by 7PM -- even though it's now 9:30PM. So UPS processing at Horsham is screwed up royally... as well as the tracking info is BS.
Latest word from UPS is... if I don't receive the packages tomorrow, then I need to contact the sender who will need to initiate an investigation by UPS. They told me I can't initiate that. It's gotta come from the sender. So we'll see what happens. I'm so disgusted by this whole mess, I won't even say how I really feel. So at this point, it's Wednesday night. I've waited over 2 bleeping years for these cars already... so I'll wait until next week before we rip UPS a new rear end. Perhaps by then, UPS in Horsham will get its head screwed on straight. One can only hope at this point.

Did everyone receive their package(s)? Adam, UPS finally came back to life today… and after the packages sat in the Horsham PA distribution center since Sunday morning, both packages were delivered today.
Folks, I sprung for a bunch of these that will make a spendid, eye-catching unit train. But for now, here’s some quick iPhone snapshots of the OGF Locomotive, one new flatcar with beautifully decorated PUPs, and Lionel’s Vieginian “rail blazing service” extended vision caboose that fits the flame theme quite nicely. Enjoy!!!

FYI, Pup Trailer owners. You may notice your trailers are sitting higher in the front than the back, or the reverse. I did, and my OCD kicked in, and I couldn’t unsee it. I gave the car a close look and discovered that you can adjust and level each trailer. Each trailer mount is adjustable. There is a small black thumb screw on the front of each mount that moves the supporting struts back and forth. When the struts are straight up and down, your trailer will sit level. Just be gentle in turning the screw, wouldn’t want to snap it off. The picture below shows the car with the struts on the mounts in the proper straight up position, trailers are level. You can see the black thumbscrew on the left mount if you maximize the picture and look closely…

Received my two cars but the flat cars are the same number. thought they would be two different numbers. the trailers do look very nice. thanks for all your hard work. Not unique to this project. MTH is all over the map in this regard. Very confusing on the best of days.
Years ago, one SKU often was delivered in two road-numbers. And the product box indicated the road-number on the end-flap.
In more recent years however — especially with the advent of so many custom runs now — MTH has usually gone the route of one road number per SKU. So we need to read how each car is announced. Many cars are now announced with multiple SKU’s, when more than one road-number is being offered.
But even that’s not gospel. So it’s not always clear.
