Very nice pieces. I am drawn to that All Door CN. First, it appears
a bit shorter than 60'. Is it? Next, never seen anything like it, but
back in the day I used to haul news print from Quebec on its
way to the NY Times in NYC. It was so %$@#$% heavy that
it was like hauling lead through those Vermont country back
roads and had to be relayed as it took so long to move. That
was back in the day when newspapers predated the internet.

Well, it is the size of most All-Door box cars, and is a little small than 60'. I've never seen anything like it either, and even though I am not a Canadian railroad fan, I like the design of this car.

Well, that all door is definitely a great find. WHAT? Two versions of the Frosted Flakes car??? Now I am
JEALOUS .

Fortunately, these great pieces from Anderson Paint Shops help ease the pain. I am already thinking of
new videos for each of these great cars, thanks A-A-Ron!!

Buss, start saving your nickels and dimes. There is a THIRD version!

Here is a similar blue roof but note that it has shortened ladders and no roofwalk!





Reposted Buss's photo to make comparisons easily.
