Forgot to add that for the N scale car, I purchased a set of Kadee 6 axle
trucks, removed the old 4 axle ones and viola!, a spittin' image (at least
in my eyes) of The Round Up!!!

PS - Must be to giddy with excitement over the pending arrival of the office
car Burlington on Lines West of the Flat River Lines!

Florian,
I model in HO and N scale...Kato came out with the Budd Office Car in N
scale several years ago with two in Q letter...Burlington and The Round Up
(even though the car is modeled after the Burlington, not The Round Up).
There are differences (window placement, etc) in the two cars (Mike Spoor's
color guide to Q Freight & Passenger Equipment has shots), but I am the type
of modeler where if I can't tell the difference from 3 feet away, it is okay
by me.
I'll be picking up my HO model this afternoon -- yipeeee!
Regards from San Diego,
John Lewis
