Domed passenger cars

[NW Modeling List]

On page 65 of the book Great Trains of North America, there is a picture of  
the 1613 in UP colors with N&W lettering.  The caption is wrong - it  says it 
was taken in 1961 - and it is credited to a J. K. Hayward.  This  picture is 
the only reason I have kept this book.

According to the caption on this  
_http://www.railimages.com/gallery/album05/aat_ (http://www.railimages.com/gallery/album05/aat)   probably not.  I don't 
pretend to be an expert on this car;  thank goodness for references, both hard 
copy and on line!

Dave; Thanks for your correction. I am glad to know that the former AHM  (now 
IHC) P-S dome is an accurate model of the former UP/Wabash cars. I was  
planning to paint mine blue and number it 1602, but will now do 1613. Do you  know 
if the car ever ran on the N&W in UP colors with N&W lettering  ala the 
sleeper "National Colors".? Thanks again. Dan
