    I have these, took me awhile to find the Gold 5488 edition.  Other stuff I have is the 856 series trains from Athearn trains.  I need to dig them out to get photos, but there was 3 of them, the 1st was painted normal black and red, the 2nd was black and red but included an all gold locomotive, the 3rd included the locomotive and cars all being painted gold, which I was told there was only 4 sets made.   But here is some pictures to start with.  IMG_20200121_194716249.thumb.jpg.32c3f7c4eade4c3f92bf3e41aa800db8.jpgIMG_20200121_194633412.thumb.jpg.894fba1f9e32638a9951406f925675ad.jpg

    the playset above is NIB and has the place mat with it.

    The poster I bought from Girad Auctions.

    So how many gold 5488 were made?  That is cool.

    It has been on Facebook recently also. Awesome history . This is what Danny was recreating with his 5388 . There was a picture of one that made it to a farmer that purchased it. The picture I screenshot from this site had a blue grain cart behind it

    That wasn't a powershift, just the redesigned cab.

  6. This is simply combining a couple of documents and the notes I've taken into one comprehensive document, hopefully everything is accurate. 

    I finally pulled the trigger on a beautiful 2005,  2388 myself, this information helped me make the decision!
