Nice,, the Lionel company (Makers of the model train) used to be in S.E. Michigan, then they moved to Mexico to save labor cost. Of course the quality of the product followed the labor cost (WENT WAY DOWN) Finally they gave up on Mexico as a bad idea and moved back to S.E. Michigan (one of the two locations was Clarkston as I recall).

Alas it was too little too late, the Mexican el-cheapo labor had done the damage, the company never recovered from the reputation hit they took and they wound up in bankruptcy.

now tell me what the connection is between that J-38 and and that annoying pink bunny that keeps going and going and going?
