I have been involved in the fundraising efforts to restore the J-Class 611. We're sending her off THIS WEEKEND. As part of the celebration, we did this special commemorative card, an homage to the old Topps Sails and Rails cards. I don't think there will be any left after the send-off party on Saturday. If you want one, just PM me with your address. If you are interested in helping or learning more about the 611, see www.fireup611.org (http://www.fireup611.org).

Got mine Tuesday.

Beautiful card. They really should consider making more to sell in their online store. Maybe even paired with one showing a picture of the restored engine.
