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.
