Does anybody know if anybody makes Rock Island smooth side passenger cars in the red & yellow scheme? My wife has a pair of old AHM E units that she wants to get matching passenger cars for. I know that a long time ago Athearn had them, but I'm not finding them listed now.

I'll have to wait till I get home to get you a link to the place, but an e-mail to .... The Antique Barn .... might get you an answer as to any he might have in stock. |

Thanks for the link Dave. I'll show that to my wife, and I think that it's exactly what she's looking for.

Good, hope they work out. I have a lot of old IHC cars on my layout. Since they come with plastic wheels and horn-hook couplers, I routinely upgrade them with 36" or 38" Intermountain metal wheels and McHenry direct replacement truck mounted couplers. This link should show a couple of pictures: www.the-ihc-hobby.com/cgi/bsc.cgi?sn=048A1432378112202QNNB3B6426256 |
