No, they fabricated the steps and end platforms themselves and put the car on a chassis they had in their junk collection.

That appears to be a standard gauge body on a narrow gauge running gear. The steps are at a very odd angle. Could they have gotten the running gear
from a C&S narrow gauge caboose?

Hol - Can you tell us the history behind CB&Q 9 (or whatever road number it once carried) now at Pioneer Village in Minden, NE? The Museum calls the way car "narrow gauge," but obviously
it was a standard gauge car. Is this way car complete with original wheels? Hard to tell from your earlier image that I've enhanced and attached. Almost looks like Pioneer Village ended-up with a car body that they later added wheels to. Thanks - Louis

The Q had two types, classes NM-1 and NM-2. Here are images of both types, the NM-2 having been sold to the DRI&NW. The second NM-1 shot is the one on display at Pioneer Village in Minden, Neb.

Recently I thought I saw a Q bobber way car. Either on Facebook or maybe in a book or magazine somewhere. Am I imaging this or did the Q have bobber(s)? I’d like to see some photographs if they did
Thanks!
