I’m looking for anything that has the Big Four road name C.C.C. & St.L. Bachmann made a coal car, not sure how long ago. Has anyone seen any other manufacturers that have this road name…? Thanks…
Travis, You’ll prolly have to paint your own. Stan can easily do the decals.
I think there was one available in G from MDC Roundhouse. I just checked 2 of their catalogs and it is NOT listed.
Andrews trucks? Wait no Bettendorffs , steel ends on a wooden car?
Older model.
Wow, Thanks for those photos guys, I have thought of getting some decals made. I need to find out what the lettering size would be. I would like to do several types of cars , just need more photos for references… Travis

Quite a long time ago - it was a 1:22.5 ‘Big Hauler’ 3-bay, which was based on the EBT narrow gauge cars. It didn’t look bad as a 1/29th scale SG car though!

OK…I really don’t know what kind of car that is. Reefer? Ice hatches on the side? Murphy roof? I know you thought it was impossible but I’m being educated!
Thanks
Yes Pete, I have two of them and missed out on a third one on E-bay, Travis

Composite boxcar. They have an example at the PA RR Museum that Bruce Chandler based a model on…
