This is a Tri-ang CN domed observation car (Park Car) that I bought last weekend. This one's in nice shape, but the matching baggage and diner cars need a little work.

A Conrail quad hopper with a custom coal load and LL wheelsets. I bought 10 of these at a Greenburg show this summer.

Just as I was joining the Kamloops Model Railroader club, I found this little treasure...




We are now called the Kamloops Heritage Model Railroaders.

I gotta ask one of the club big-wigs about when this boxcar was created.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out.

It looks like a True Scale car. Train Miniature had the dies next. Then they went to Walters. A company called Silver Streak made wood car models that looked the same.
