Yep, TasteBake will receive all those ingredients. I have a bunch of corn syrup tank cars that are appropriately decorated, a few tank cars for vegetable oil and a handful of boxcars for miscellaneous cargo, but I will need more.
The problem is, certain commodities are shipped in specific cars and because I am just getting back into the hobby I just don’t have the knowledge to know which ones need, or should have, specific cars.
Also, because I'm relatively new I will probably be asking a lot of basic questions so please bear with me as I would rather not make any stupid or expensive mistakes or at least keep them to a minimum.
Thanks again Russ
