I built a model of the car in the ebay slide. I had wanted one for my fleet but found that while hoards of them had been released, none were done properly. Also I thought that the commercial rendition of the gold paint was far too metallic. I started with a Branchline boxcar and this is the result for my 1970 era - approximately the same age as the picture.
