Bill,

The only cars from Golden Gate on display were the Pennsy P70 and 
baggage car. Both looked nice. Sunset indicated that they were 
considering a full line of heavyweight cars in several road names 
including Q. There was also some thought of building a Q way car with 
the M-4 2-10-4. That would be welcome. I have their DM&IR Yellowstone 
and caboose. Both are excellent. And, the Missabe M-4 really runs 
smooth.
