- Hi group. In my future there's some kitbashing of heavyweight cars that will have to happen and I wondered if anyone has had a go at using either a Walthers or Branchline coach as a starting point. I

- Duncan, Depending on what cars you want to model, I would suggest checking out the available CB&Q cars from NKP Products at their website. As I recall, he has kits for at least a dozen CB&Q heavyweig

- Duncan, I am not certain if the Walthers coach is 80 ft, but I suspect it is. One of these days I will have to buy one or two or three. I have "kitbashed" several of Walthers heavyweight (Pullman) an

- Ray, Thanks for the input. I remember your article on 5272 (which I'll go back to now for a look). It sounds as though getting the Walthers cars down to the "bare bones" isn't too tough. From the loo

- The 60' cars (C&NW prototypes) were made by (and now exclusively marketed by) Rivarossi (now a division of Hornsby). You may be able to find them in their red boxes. They may still be found in places

- Pete, Appreciate the offer! I've got a few photos from BRHS calendars, Zephyrs and Bill Glick's books. More would always be great. I believe 3537 made the move from the Villisca branch to the K&W in
