Unfortunately, this picture cannot be reproduced, the Ski Train is in Canada and repainted.

Whilst looking for the Canadian Ski Train, I found this---A Giant Wiener mobile.
While not a "TRAIN" it does run on tracks and has "cars" behind the "engine"

Ok, the Ski Train can be reproduced in model form but, not reality. The Ski Train equipment went to the Algoma Central Railway for a Canyon Tour train.
