Ralph;
That's a nice photo, thanks for pointing it out. The Q's scale test
cars are covered to some degree in Burlington Bulletin #27. I don't
have access to mine at present, but do know that the road owned more
than than one style. The one pictured looks similar to models produced
in HO scale by Walthers, Hallmark and others.
Kind regards, Rob Adams
