Last yr someone posted about seeing a steel Q waycar in a scrap yard while going thru St. Cloud on Amtrak. Well, I drove over there tonight and spoke to one of the scrap yard mgrs (is right across tracks from Amtrak depot). The waycar, ret'd in original full Q paint but with BN #, is spoken for by the scrap yard owner who it turns out is a railfan AND a modeler! He plans to eventually move it to some property he has. They contract with BN to scrap ret'd and wrecked cars, usually coal hoppers but have had cabooses/waycars from time to time. He said these are few & far between now as there are not many left on BN so they are hesitant to scrap any more unless beyond repair. He also indicated they have a waiting list to buy anymore that come in (no surprise!). Gerald Yahoo!
