Nice Hi-Cubes Bamos and Chops. Does anyone have the Durango one? That may have been the most colorful of all those short ones. I had one years ago that didn't last too long until it was repainted PC and then an angry younger brother threw darts at it...
That still grinds my gears!
Some longer "Hi-Cubes" are these Bachmann enclosed auto racks for Auto-Train. &5 or so feet long.

Those Auto Train carriers, if you could find one, were going for
mad money not so long ago.

Rojo Grande, you must have stunned that innocent person
with a whiff of Jade Fog to get those for free. He probably woke up and said,
"wot happened to my Auto Trains? And what is this crumpled ten dollar bill doing here??"
And again, Mike trumps us all.

| That’s the one Buss. I did an online search and could not find any examples Of that car. In hind sight I wish I had not repainted it. Make sure you treat that car with great care.
