Hi Ben,

     I have visited those pages several times nad have found them invaluable in 
putting together my EB. Now for the biggest problem I have been having........ 
The EB ran on the Q between SPUD and CUS and a Q headend car was added after 
the GN headend car was removed. I have not been able to pin down exactly what Q 
car was added for this run. I have posted in a couple of other threads here and 
on the gngoat list but no answer as of yet. I would like to know type of car 
along with names/numbers.

Thanks,

Tom johnson

(The other minor problem with the Walthers EB is the lack of the correct 
Baggage/Mail Storage and 48 Seat Day-Nite Coach. Having these cars would allow 
a correct EB from 1956-1965 timeframe.)
