Rick, you and I got started about the same time with A1G. I was a bit later as I know it was in the summer of 1967 I got the Norfolk Southern composite gondola. It came in the case with the early plastic spacers instead of the blue insert and had the bronze colored wheels with the small insulators.
I actually still have my first 5-10 original A1G cars untouched, as far as changing them (they have been run) in the original boxes.
In November, I got my first A1G loco, the Santa Fe E8.

Hi Dennis,
? ? ? Got my first Atlas a1g April of 67. Remember being in the local hobby shop ( Vail's Hobbies) a year before where in a glass case where they stored the HO engines inside was a picture of a piece of N scale rolling stock with a dime laying beside it to show the size of it taken at the toy expo show in New York City. My friend Bobby and I use to marvel at the picture and couldn't believe how small it was ?!!
