My memories are not that specific. I'd suggest searching online photo galleries.

David and Glen Haug,

While not specifically related to this group, I am modeling strictly 1988, how were the Gallery Cars lettered at this point in time? Was it the large Black BN Logo on the large panel to the lower left end of the car, was it the combination of Metra and BN Logo's on either side of the doors, was it something else, or a combination of them all?

Regards

James


I was the one who started this thread back in October.

Specific issues I see with this announcement:

-BN coach 746 would not have a toilet

-Nothing higher than 795 should have a nameboard

-For more realism, the nameboards should be mixed BURLINGTON and BNSF RAILWAY. I heard Clayton Johanson(sp?) (the BNSF manager who ordered the lettering to be put on) speak about this and I think he said only ten cars have BURLINGTON. I'd suggest selling sets of two BNSFs and one BURLINGTON, or one of each with a no-name cab car.

-Research should be done into when the lettering was added vs. when the cabs were blanked out (keeping in mind that the current fleet has no blanked cabs with nameboards).

-If memory serves, they've left out an era when there was a green and black BN logo to the right of the doors.

To recall my youth (and save money), I'd go for the BN era. Unfortunately, neither of the 3-car sets is accurate. One set has 746 with a toilet; the other has 802 with a nameboard.

I hope they can be persuaded to change the numbers to be more accurate before they go into full production. I'd also like to see the cars with no nameboards offered with lettering and numbers. The cabs should be numbered 796-815 and the coaches 816-820.
