Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
Please place your order using our SECURE Shopping Cart site:
http://wig-wag-trains-cart.com/home
If you MUST send an e-mail inquiry, copy & paste the entire description TEXT ONLY (NO pictures!) from the
item you are ordering into your e-mail.
It will save time and reduce confusion in determining
what you
are inquiring about.
With the quantity of lines we carry it's not possible to memorize all of them.

February 27 - Micro-Trains Line has announced March new releases and delivery of items previously available for Pre-order. Please be advised that as step one in the process of getting people to use the Shopping Cart to locate and place their order our page will redirect you to the Shopping Cart 20 seconds after you open the page. Two new Heavyweight Dining cars a pair of an iconic care probably everybody has seen on most layouts but rarely in real life and a car that may have been a one-of-a-kind are featured this month along with the return of the Civil War era cars. Best Price deadline at Wig-Wag is 03/04/2015 or when we can get no more if earlier. Don't wait to order! Be sure your order is in our Shopping cart before you give up on your team making the NHL playoffs via the Trade deadline tonight.
Please submit your Order using our secure ON-LINE shopping cart and receive your order confirmation right away. It's the SECURE way to place your order! If you want to order by e-mail or phone and pay the $15 processing fee you may do so. FYI: Shopping Cart Pre-Orders are processed first. With George working for the C&TSRR 170-180 miles from the shop it is the only way to get your order entered in the system in a timely manner. He is only at the shop 2-4 days a month. So far we have spent 87.5% of his first year salary just to provide lodging so he can work there. Does that make any sense? George is reporting that one prediction for tonight is 4-6 feet of snow with likely disastrous results for roofs on homes. How will a 5th wheel hold up to that??? Winter in a trailer has already been a very CHILLING experience in the San Luis Valley of Colorado, one of the coldest places in the continental USA every winter night. This has actually been a warm winter and it has seen frozen sewer lines and frozen water lines inside the trailer.

February 27 - Athearn has announced a new release of the GATC 30,000 gallon Ethanol Tank Car for delivery in December 2015. Six paint schemes are coming. Each has a single and three 3-packs.

The page this link takes you to will re-direct you after 20 seconds to the shopping cart where you should be looking for new announcements. Best Price deadline at Wig-Wag is March 28th.

Winter in a trailer has already been a very interesting (CHILLING) experience in the San Luis Valley of Colorado, one of the coldest places in the continental USA every winter night. Today he had 8" of snow fall between 1:30pm & 4:00pm. It had already snowed for 11 hours. His vehicle did not have the weight to pull out of a dip in the road at the campground and it is there still until the snow melts. It's a 4.5 mile hike back to work on Monday. Luckily he only had to trudge through about 100 yards of fresh snow to get to the trailer.

At the top of Cumbres/La Manga Pass it's about 5' but most of that (3ft*/-) is in the last 30 days and has not compressed into ice yet.

November 1 - Pontification Time: While I hunkered down here in Mogote bivouacked near the RR working on the Rapido announcement (that I hope will be complete in an hour) I was listening to Sirius XM 70's on 7 for Casey Kasem's American Top 40. As he counted down to Gladys Knight & the Pips Midnight Train to Georgia (their first #1 on 10/27/73) I was once again reminded of the Sunday night spent doing homework and counting down with Kasey. Then I was troubled by all the consternation the Casem family has gone through since his passing. I sit here in the cold of the San Luis Valley and pray that they can once and finally find the peace and tranquility that Kasey brought so many of my generation especially as he concluded each week with this phrase: "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the Stars." Now that AT40 has concluded for this week I will put in the Garth Brooks DVD from Wynn Las Vegas, the "Blame it all on My Roots" Concert. What better day can one have. |
