Has any one ever had a  G scale bachmann train set utterly destroyed when shipped in its original packaging even the original outer shipping  box? I received a circus set today and it was DESTROYED!!!! but no damage to the packaging at all! trucks of tender was sheared off weight had smashed through the rear of the engine taking parts of circuit board with it and the deatils there plus boiler side has heat warpage it looks like. front truck on engine one wheel is sheared off and axle broken  the metal wheels on the combine car  the outer rims are loose and hanging on the plastic axles. The domes on engine were loose in the box. And that is just the real obvious damage .
  Thanks for letting me vent just real upset as i was really looking forward to this set as an aside it was shipped fedex ground.

 By brand name what would those be?   

Yes that is what i was using krylon and cheap wal-mart 97 cent spray paint

  Any one know of  good sites , tips and or books on how to paint large scale train cars and engines? 
  I  tried just painting the under sides of cars,wheels  and tenders  flat black. and am amazed how much better the cars look just doing that. so any ideas would be great. As always thanks for any help.
