* Rivarossi made long ago this Metal baggage car. It runs on HO track, but is very large. Most likely OO scale. Any info on this car. it is a orange color with a silver roof. A design is stamped on its side that says Rivarossi postal.
* Maybe this was the Postal baggage car for the 1953 Hiawatha set.

Frank,
Here it is in their 1950 catalog. From the text it appears it was only offered here in red, green, and blue.

Nelson ; Thanks I found it. that cars colors match those for the Milwaukie Road Hiawatha passenger train. 1952 catalog about page 10. The set is there in a bad photo. I think the car behind the engine is the one I have.
