Tom and CB&Q N Scalers- I have tried to bug Tom into doing N Scale sides for CB&Q for a number of years. Now that Micro-Trains and Wheels of Time have released Heavyweight Cars and Trucks suitable to use on such projects maybe the time has truly come to move forward. The “Flower” 6/4/6 will fit on Con-Cor and Kato CZ cars and fills in a missing car type in the streamlined category. My list is probably not up to date but here is what I had for CB&Q-interest NKP sides (with some interesting Pullmans added): 40' RPO/Baggage MB24 | 47' RPO/Combine CF7 | Mainline Coach 6161 6170 | 2 Door Baggage Car Steel Sheathed BA10 | BA10 Rider Car 3 Door Steel Sheathed BA10a | PA14 HW Suburban Coach PA14 | PA15 HW Power Generator / Coach PA15 | CB&Q Heavyweight Dining/Parlor Car 308 | CB&Q Heavyweight 60' Baggage/Storage (rebuilt Baggage/Mail) with Rib Roof #1400 1402 | CB&Q Heavyweight 60' Baggage/Storage (rebuilt RPO) with Smooth Roof #1306 | CB&Q Heavyweight 60' Baggage/Storage (Steel Sheathed) with Smooth Roof #1324 1327 | CB&Q Class DA5 Heavyweight Dining Car with the Large Rectangular Windows 177 | CB&Q Class DA5 Heavyweight Dining Car with Thermopane Windows #172 & 176 | CB&Q Class DA2 Heavyweight Dining/Parlor Car #325 326 | CB&Q Heavyweight Baggage 75' Class BA 15/16 #1525 1539 | CB&Q Heavyweight RPO/Baggage (2 or 3 Window) 75' Class MB22 #1935 1944 | CB&Q Heavyweight RPO (5 Window) 60' Class MA 10 Rebuilt #2320,22,23 | CB&Q Heavyweight Baggage / Storage 60' (Rebuilt RPO) with smooth roof #1592 1597 | CB&Q Heavyweight Rider Car | CB&Q Baggage / Storage (Same kit makes either car) #1492 #1504 | CB&Q Budd 6/4/6 "Silver Iris" (and other flowers) | PRR/N&W/Pullman/SOU "County," "General" and "Mount" Series 10 Section/Lounge | 12/2/3 "Elm" Series | (C&NW, CRI&P, Erie, PRR, Pullman Pool & others) 4158 | 12/1/4 "Oak" Series | (C&NW, CRI&P, Erie, PRR, Pullman Pool & others) 4172 | 14 Single Bedroom "Night" Series | (B&O, CN, NH, NYC & PRR) 3980 | 8/1/3 "Tower" Series | (ACL, Pullman Pool & others) 4090D | 8/1/3 "Tower" Series | (ACL, C&EI, IC, SRR & others) 4090F | 8/4 "Emerald" Series | (B&O, LV, NYC & others) 4022A | 8/4 "Emerald" Series | (Wabash, PRR & others) 4022B | 10/3 "Villa" Series | (C&NW & UP) 3411 | | ACL Class E10 Heavyweight Combine | |
The ACL car #666 ran on the CB&Q carrying Atomic Energy Commission material. I know that I would be interested in at least one of the CB&Q cars and in some cases duplicates. Anybody else?

Mt. Juliet, TN Hi Mike, I can do it....a matter of quantity and cost. Anything on my website can be taken to N-scale. Probably get six to nine cars or more per sheet. Estimated cost for the first sheet...approximately $500, including CAD work and tooling. Tom
