Ha, that's pretty cool.  If I was a collector that would definitely be in my pile.

Talk about milking a joke!

Seriously, though,

I'd have a cow seeing this moo-ving a string of cars.

If the N scale collector made 'Collectables', does the the N Scale Enthusiast make 'Enthusiables'?

Given that Tillamook's main claim to fame used to be cheese, and probably still is, it's an appropriate scheme. 

When we lived in Pasco Tillamook cheese was a treat.  It cost more than the national brands, so we didn't buy it often, but it also tasted better.  Many years ago (grade school?) we drove up the Oregon coast through Tillamook and toured the cheese factory.  Wonder if they still give tours?

They still do tours, Did it last summer, First time since I was a kid. Also, if you end up out there, you gotta check out the air museum in the blimp hanger, at the airport. The building alone is worth the trip.

I have heard of the blimp hanger, but don't remember it, if we even saw it.
