Careful guys,  the width of the lower side sheet, height of window opening, and width of letterboard are very different on a Branchline side vs the prototype - including the NKP sides and the Aurora Shops imported cars.  
Q heavyweight coaches had a distinctive "rib" just above the window band not on any "plastic" offering.  So, it's not only the number of windows, it's unique measurements and details that set Q heavyweight coaches apart from Walthers and Branchline.
Of course, it all depends on how critical or prototypical are the modeler's demands.

Hi John
 
I would prefer to have the 6117 & 6118 modeled
which is on page 149 of my first passenger car book.
The 23 window car has been done in brass several years ago's demands.
and NKP Car Company has done the 23 window car also.
Plus if the modeler is not critical they can use a 22 window
car made by Walthers or Branchline (unless you count the
windows it is hard to tell).
Just my 2 cents worth.
If they consider an Observation mention the PULLMAN plan 3521
Mt Rainier which I have seen same car on 3 or more Railroads.
Need more info on that, let me know.

John Greene of Bethlehem Car Works is interested in producing model kits for CB&Q coaches 6100-6114. John does have a copy of Bill Glick's Burlington Passenger Car Photo Album, but would also like to know if there may be any other photos of these cars available.
 
John has already produced several car kits for the Great Northern Railway Historical Society company store, and these seem to have been pretty well received and are generating some income for the society.
 
Thanks in advance for information about any additional photos.
 
Best regards,
