Ken, good deal then! Specially at a good price.
The details on a few of those cabeese, looks AWESOME like the Bay-Window model that's a RTR model just looking at it!
Ben, did GN even have a caboose in Big Sky Blue? I don't know and I can't remember if I have seen one.....CRS syndrome! 
EDIT: Just noticed.....my 2300 posting! WOW!

Ken, Yes, but I was actually meaning a model in Big Sky Blue.....Affordable, as the one you pictured is a brass model. I don't think I've seen a plastic one is what I ment....I should have been more clear on what I was talkin about......
Sorry about the confusion! again, my bad!

| I would have guessed Bachmann by the way it sits and the metal wheels. It sits too high.
