Here in Western Australia we had a small delivery for the fish tank.
My carport camera doesn't pick up the mail box at the end of the driveway very well. The wife went to get the package but it had been opened and product was in mailbox on its own without any packaging.
Also no package in yard or street.
We assume the package didn't fit so they opened for us. Probably too lazy to walk down the drive to the house.
I've gone Japanese with the trains.
Had thought of Australian but one long straight and a load of sand seemed boring.
Happy New Year to everyone in Canada.

Hello Mate, Thank you for your comment and Happy New year, nice to know I am seen over in Australia, Yes people are getting bold as late, if they can get your address etc, and get into your Amazon account, they can set themselves up ratter well, how ever $ 150.00 per day was a bit much, I am on a very small disability pension, so what they did get hurts big time, watch your accounts for a couple of weeks just to make sure, right now I am waiting on some parts and pieces to get to me this week, then I can do another unboxing video, had to wipe everything off the smart phone so should be back in business I hope, learning curve for me, as am new to smart phones, my girl friend talked me into it, Cheers from the Great White North

My dad passed in 2/23 and my mom gave me his old train sets , I gave one to my brother one is gutted and is on my coffee table for looks and the one I kept he had bought from Branford exchange it was the Old Bat man train set by hawthorn village he had the engine and the b car he passed before he could complete the set he also had some lifelike and tyco cars I ran his train this Christmas and enjoyed it more than I thought I would and the next thing I knew I had started buys a Norfolk and southern train and cars and began repairs on a bunch on broken engines that I got running I also have a UA-cam channel and have a video of my dads set and my set running around the Christmas tree with his collection of houses churches trees and small things he collected with his trains I normally do RC trucks and cars but I am enjoying the train hobby and just getting into it I already know I hate Bachmann gears because they split and the repair was a nightmare 😂 and the track my dad bought new to replace his old track that was left in my parents old home is terrible it’s a bedded track made by Walther and I had to align every joint with needle nose pliers to stop derailments 😢 I have one tyco engine in the collection a Chattanooga Cho Cho with smoke unite and chuffing sound it’s missing the stairs on the front and was squealing but I finally got it running well 😂 here is my dads train set video ua-cam.com/video/6-5pMHCGmC8/v-deo.htmlsi=qwSkKuI0nYumeKg5

Thanks for your comment, and yes about Bachmann, their steam engines all though they look nice are JUNK big time, really bad problem with spilt gears etc, Once the railroad bug bites you you will be hooked, good luck with your channel, and Happy New Year to you
