HO scale passenger cars

[NW Modeling List]

According to Waynor, N&W and RF&P each had three, P-S  Plan 4140, Lot 6792, 
built Nov. - Dec. '48:
N&W - Buchanan County, McDowell County & Sussex  County,
RF&P - King George, King William & King &  Queen
It would appear that PRR got 18 of their "Rapids" cars to the  same Plan in 
the same Lot in that time frame.

If  Walthers would do their new 10-6 sleeper lettered N&W, it would  
probably be right on for the S-2.  The model is based on PRR  
prototype, and I think the ownership of these was confined to PRR and  
N&W.  Maybe N&WHS could urge Walthers to help out.   After all, they 
are lettering this model for a lot of roads which never  had a 10-6 to 
this plan.  I know SP had similar 10-6's, but they  lacked the 
distinctive "belt rail" below the windows.

The N&W  version of Walther's PRR B-60 baggage car is pretty good. 
They are on sale  from Walthers right now for $24.95, item 
932-5874  Looks like the new  Walthers lightweight diner has the 
service door in the wrong place on the  aisle side of the car.

The Rapido cars have been based on Canadian  prototypes to date.  Not 
close enough to anything N&W  owned.

With these few exceptions, nothing right out of the box without  
cosmetic surgery and repainting.
