How many more of these are out there? Must be others but probably not 48.
Taken Thursday north of CB waiting for Hospital train that would never come.
Been trying to get this photo since May of 2019.

Did I miss something?  Hospital train that would never come?

I think it's the license plates.

Do your vehicles get pushed around everywhere like the real 4014 ? ;-)

I bet that one runs a lot better :-)

Steve, that's cool . 

Many years ago here in Santiago, Chile  I saw an elderly Toyota with SP 4449  plates.   I followed the lady and ended up asking her if she would consider selling her plates to me.   No problem but then I found out plates always stay with the car right into the scrapyard.  Cannot be transferred to another car,  so that was that.  I should have kept in touch with her and maybe bought the car to get the plates,  even if just for my wall at home.  Now we have a new system with four letters and two numbers and the newest cars are getting plates starting with SP.   Too bad they don't have vanity plates here.
