Hi Bill:

So far, only this 903037 Night Before Christmas set at Frontgate with a 93340 NP&S boxcar or maybe it's a rerun of the old 90044 North Pole Special set. I'd have to pull out my old catalogs to check.

Nothing from Boscov's, Sam's Club, Bass Pro Shop or OSH that I've seen yet.

Thanks Wade,
The 2011 Frontgate set number is 36464, it is the only one I can find.   It is definitely not the same as  90044, and there was no three car set with the Merry Christmas Caboose.   Just checked the 2009 Frontgate Catalog set and the 2011 offering must be ones they didn't sell in 2009(they are exactly the same) or a rerun of that set even has the same number 36464.  So it is definitely like 90037 with the added boxcar.

I would love to see a picture of the set in the box and the box cover, but so far I have not yet seen any.  If you do please send me copies.

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill:

That's the trouble with Frontgate. They used a stock Bachmann set picture the other year on the North Pole freight set and then it turns out it was a special paint job. Maybe someone who has a Frontgate store close by will post some pictures.
