Just got back from a holiday trip.

LOTS of cool stuff:

T-shirt (brown in color) with DLRR/WDWRR logo on the front and the "All Aboard!" locomotive print on it on the back
Chambray shirt (long-sleeve "denim" type") with same stuff on it
Larry Dotson's print
DLRR attraction poster
Gold-plated Five-"coin" set of WDWRR (four locomotives plus a WDWRR logo)
Gold-plated Six-"coin" set of DLRR (five locomotives plus a DLRR logo)
Steins and mugs
16oz (I believe) Glasses with "All Aboard!" logo
Set of three tin signs with DLRR, WDWRR, and "All Aboard!" logos
Some prints of Walt in the cab at DLRR
Some prints of Mickey and Casey Jr.

I have pics of almost everything I saw; just have to get them off the camera and posted :)

The chambray shirt is *very* nice-looking; however, I was concerned about the print on the back. It looks to be a "cheap" iron-on (feels almost like vinyl) and was worried that it may come off. For $80, I said "No thanks"...LOL...bought the T-shirt instead.

Egad, you intend on actually wearing the shirt? It's a Disney collectable. New and in the original packaging, in five years you'll be able to sell it on eBay and retire!!!

:lol:

That is the merchandise that was discussed in the Disney Train exhibit at the Disneyland Gallery topic, and also pictured at the Art of Disney Parks website. So much good stuff, it was hard to make a decision.

Interestingly, the George Scribner print of the Marsh that I got isn't pictured there.

It's not in any packaging; just hanging on a hanger :\

But yes, that's most of the merchandise that we saw. The shadow-boxes with lighting were *really* neat.

Thanks for the update Main Street Jim. By any chance did you see the $35 print of Maggie Parr's "Heading West?" I've been looking for it since the exhibit opened at Disneyland but it has been sold out there.

Heading West is not sold out. The entire shipment was misplaced. The Park shows they had 35 in stock at Disneyland and more in the warehouse, but no one knows where the box is! At least that was the story i got last month.

I believe they had Heading West at WDW. You might want to give them a call if you still can't find it at Disneyland.

It's probably safe to say that this guy hasn't retired yet. The price was even reduced to $212 (what a bargain) but it hasn't sold in over a year:

Unlike a scale model train, a shirt will always be a shirt. It's not something you operate to enjoy or display unless you're in a Hard Rock Cafe.

Thanks Steve and IDMT129 for the updates on "Heading West." The shipment was misplaced at Disneyland? Man, that stinks! :(

If I place an order for the print with DeliverEars, will the order request go to Walt Disney World or Disneyland? I'm hoping that they will ship from WDW since they only have the print there. I've never placed an order with DeliverEars before.

That's really beautiful, impressive embroidery! It makes Persian rugs look like something the dog barfed up. Now, I know it's done by machine, but someone had to come up with the design, and program the machine. I'd be inclined to cut it off the jacket, and mount it under glass on the wall.
