Overall it looks close but the problem is I've never seen one in person & the pics Walthers uses aren't great. Has anyone ever been able to look at one in a...
I looked into this somewhat when I started my project which is still ongoing but has slowed to a crawl. The Walthers car is a nice car but the Bachmann shell...
Luther, I don't think this is the same shell as on the Empire Builder set. It says new body style. And I don't see those strange vents by the dome window....
Another question has also come to mind - is this the 'plated' version that the Superliners are. If so I wonder how well they take paint? I'd imagine a coat of...
Is this model at all accurate? I only have one shot of a Conrail ACF 4650, and it's 886144. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180334081971 Tim...

Gert is correct. A call to the NMRA (423) 892-2846 may produice a copy in their library. Another source might be to see if RMC can make a photocopy of the...
I was wondering if there was one. Evidence that CSX lettered a CR car into NYC marks w/ a NYC paint scheme. A nice 138H covered hopper. Not only that but a...
