Now all you have to find is 2206C, State of Mane car. Michael Bishop

Thanks George. It looks great! Yeah, the days of dilup! It eventually got where it wouldn't even work anymore. Doug

Hi Gang, I've made an update to the A1G page for the 2200 Series 40 Foot Boxcars... I located a 2206b State of Maine boxcar with the variant black lettering so I decided to reshoot all of the photos

The following link is for Spookshow, the site has a lot of info about N scale. Under the freight car section it lists what prototype if any that might be related to a freight car.?Model

George: If you would send me the link to the that board I cantry and find what information I can and pass it along to you and thergroup. Regards Ira

I know I haven't.? As I trip over this information, I try to add it to the relevant A1G page, but I'm not specifically seeking it out.? There's also the possibility that there is "no known

George: You are correct it is the Red Cagboose. I have know Alan for more years than I want to say. I left New York in 1971 to work for the US Government and was back only onec in 2000 when I went

Ira, if it's the Alan I am thinking of, it's the Red Caboose which is where the Model Railroad Equipment Company was, in the basement of 23 West 45th Street.? I have not been back to Midtown during

George thank you for the run down of these shops. I loved Polks. I went to the AHC store in the 1970s I think. I bought eight N scale cars. Four bogus Burlington insulated 40' box cars and four

Atals? I MUST improve my proofreading! That was a pretty egregious error, especially considering the group title! \:^) Doug

YES, it was Polk's. How many years ago did they go out of business? Remember them well. Very large store with excellent selections.

It could have been Madison Hardware, but it has been a long time sinse I was in the store. Ira

Boy, RoCo must have been flying high in those days, manufacturing all those cars for Atals and several other US importers, not to mention the HO stuff. Doug

Living here in Minnesota. I only ever got to imagine what those stores were like. There were some fairly good sized ones in Minneapolis but nothing like the Manhattan stores, or what I imagined them

At first I was assuming AHC was related to IHC.. but now that I found an AHC ad, it looks related to AHM.. (Like BLI/Factory Direct Trains) (or AHC handled the RC business.. Horizon/Athearn..)..
