...I am BACK! Almost kind of working steady again, and saved up my duckies and got 2 of the 4 packs of the outside braced CB&Q boxcars.
THANK YOU!
We talked about these a few years back, and I am glad to see that they happened. I know it takes a few years from an idea to reality. And I hope the sell well. Great cars for the transition period, and fit right in with steam, to the F3s and 7s, to the GP 7s and on.
I am SO very happy and will try to get more as well as catch up on the other CB&Q stuff I missed. I did promise to get the boxcars if they were made.
Now to wish for some USRA gondolas...and if possible the composite wood and steel braced ones . Kelley

Welcome back! I got one of the CB&Q outside braced cars; they are really nice little cars. Will get the rest at some point but saving for the California Zephyr now.

The Q really used them until the end. I need to pick up some passenger/baggage cars and try and score the caboose (Waycars, in CB&Q parlance) before they all disappear. Saving up for the Zephyr too as well as the new track and switches that are out there.
