What are YOUR favorite Tyco or Mantua 1890s passenger cars? I like the Santa Fe & Disneyland, the B&O, and the D&RGW. [:)]

I have one car that fits part of the description...
I have weathered it a bit. It was labeled "Central Pacific"
but now has no real markings.

The MANTUA Drover's Caboose.



I read a story about these things. These cars were special built
for the "cattle drovers" and their horses. Even to the point
that they were better equipped than a Pullman, Diner, and a tail car
(were they called cabooses yet?)

Oh this is my only Tyco/Mantua old-west piece of rolling-stock... er, besides my two dixie W & A 4-6-0's of Tyco.

John

Oh, then there's my Horse/Jail car...


I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out.
"I love your catenary!"
Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?
