USA Trains smoothside coaches

You 1/29th experts - why does the Charles Ro website have a 2011/2012 sale price catalog with the aluminum coaches at $259, described as “two tone grey” yet the USA Trains website says they are $439 ??

And, while the USAT site also describes them as two-tone grey, shows photos of BLUE coaches ?

What color are they ? I understood they are the post-war blue to match the diesels?

Because USA Trains website shows the list price.

Pete,

Here’s a photo of one that i’m starting to install L.E.D. Lighting in, they are 2 tone for sure and I have 17 that will look great as is behind my Dryfuss.

I use them with my USA Hudson and my E-8s, They run great. As far as price, pick up the “phone”

and call around, they can be had much cheaper. But they are starting to sell out. Also Dome car is

silly looking, the NYC never had any.

Nick… what are you doing with the neat work crane I see? Need more photos of it… neat looking.

Secret project, he has a DCC consultant working for him on just that project.

Nick,
Thanks for the photos. They sure look grey, not blue!

No problem Pete, any time.

Nick

P.S. Crane project photos will be soon.

Noel,

I will do an article soon on it, Completely scratch build and fully operational once DCC has been installed with sound and smoke.
