While some NYC 10-6s showed up on the CZ in the post 1957 era, by far more common were the 4-4-2s. 10-6s were the most popular LW car design, and, like the PRR, they tried to keep them "home". If you look at the foreign car DB and the various consists, you'll find that the 4-4-2s and 10-5s from Eastern roads made the bulk of the special and tour cars for those two RRs. There isn't a plastic R-T-R NYC VAlLEY car, though with the TCL coming out, the other variant is provided. But, here again, the concept of favorites / priorities comes up. The NYC preferred the painted cars on the main line trains (save for the SWL), and the VALLEY cars showed up as foreign cars much more often than the others. The NYC started dumping sleepers in the early mid-60s, to the IC and to Canada (and later to Mexico). So you have to adjust accordingly. At 10:52 AM 5/9/2012, you wrote: All, thanks for the inputs. I recently had the opportunity to pick up several BLI CZ cars enabling me to run a full CZ consist, I wanted to pick up some of the Walthers NYC 10-6s to run with it as well. My era is more mid to late 60's but I'm will to stretch a bit to get some other stuff on the RR.
