TRAIN TIME: Another M&Ms Train

Here's another fun M&Ms Christmas train. I got this off of fleaBay and never got around to doing a complete photo essay, which is just as well because I believe this is a hybrid. The pieces with Red & Yellow riding them are from the 2006 train but I have no idea what year the other's were offered. Anywho, Be Blessed and Relish Life! Ed

TRAIN TIME: M&Ms Train 2014 - Pt 5 (Final) - Handcar

Here's the last 'car' of the 2017 M&Ms train - a handcar! Normally handcars are stand-alone and not attached to a train as part of a consist, but this is a toy and it is fantasy so it's a bit of whimsy. The handcar's passenger is Green ('Hiya, I'm Green' I’m too busy shining to throw shade). Be Blessed and Relish Life! Ed

TRAIN TIME: M&Ms Train 2014 - Pt 4 - Gondola

Whereas yesterday's car was a bit of a head scratcher, today we clearly have a gondola, with Blue ( 'Sup, I'm blue' I woke up like this') riding nonchalantly. Be Blessed and Relish Life! Ed

TRAIN TIME: M&Ms Train 2014 - Pt 1

It's New Year's day, I'm siting at the computer bored out of my skull. I've already scheduled a couple of posts for today, and I'm a bit hungry for sweets. Not real hungry, but the sweet tooth is kicking in. Which reminds me - I was going to prepare a bunch of candy related posts last year and, as is my wont, got totally distracted. Looking through the computer I came across quite a few train/candy photos. Let's start off with this terrific M&Ms train that came out for Christmas 2014. I took the photos for these in 2019 - yet another example of me hoarding photos! There was an engine and 3 cars available - each one attached to the top of a plastic cylinder which contained M&Ms for a total of four different units.   The cylinders measure 7.5"H x 1.25" diameter while the engine and cars were about 3.5" L overall. Be Blessed and Relish Life! Ed
