I'm not talking about any specific car, simply because I have no
knowlegde about what car would be appropriate. I'm working on getting
some books about the Q off eBay for instance, but it's hard getting
anything here when sellers will not ship abroad, despite my 100%
feedback...
I'm afraid brass will be too expensive for me at the moment. But with
a good photograph I could do some kitbashing/scratchbuilding. So far
I don't even know how these two (S. page and post) look.

For now I have limited myself to 1966 because, as I understand, the
next year a lot of things would change, like combining three trains.
But I'm not yet into that. It would, however make a very colourful set.
Could you maybe suggest any "must have" Q book about Q passenger
trains with good car pictures? I'm also looking into making a small
dinky with two gallery cars. My guess is kitbashing them from kato or
walthers cars. But that's another subject.
Thank you for your answers.
