Cards printed by All Aboard Collector Cards feature RS2 #303,RS3 #305 and C424 #319. Well, this certainly is one of the more unique Green Bay Route items ever produced... trading cards! These 3.5" x 2.5" cards were produced in 1991 by All Aboard Collector Cards. The two shown below were cards #35, #36 and #37 in series #1. Images in the set of cards tend to run heavy in the Midwest and Northeast; besides the Green Bay & Western, some of the railroads included are Erie Lackawanna, New York Central, Chesapeake & Ohio, Milwaukee Road, Detroit Toledo & Ironton, Ann Arbor, Chicago & North Western, Grand Trunk, and the Soo Line. There were 46 cars in the set. I have to admit, as a kid growing up in Wisconsin in the 1960's, I collected lots of football cards, but never locomotive cards! ("Hey Johnnie, I'll trade you my Bart Starr rookie card for your RS3 in red and gray!")
