Modeling the Reading: General Discussion

Obs/Business car

This board is the place where questions and information specific to MODELING the Reading Company, its equipment and operations can be shared - questions like "What was the window arrangement of AF Tower in Alburtis?" and "What color paint do YOU use to paint the Reading's cream-and-brown buildings?" We also want to hear about YOUR Reading modeling projects!

t1nut OFFLINE Road Foreman of Engines Posts: 323 Thank you received: 55	I think they were used on some early fantrips. I remember seeing a photo of one on a fantrip on the W&N at Isabella curve in the early 1940's.

PRSL_Bill OFFLINE Engineer Posts: 117 Thank you received: 25	The car arrived yesterday. I saw it listed more than once. B I N $25.00 + shipping. The eBay photo was greatly lacking. A bit nicer than I was expecting. So... in all the replies what does the court of Reading Modelers think? Give me a car number! I am going modelers license here if necessary. It sure beats "Ozark Southern"! Got any photos? Bill

PRSL_Bill OFFLINE Engineer Posts: 117 Thank you received: 25	OK Sweet. #10 it is. Are the on line photos accurate? Was it ever lettered Reading Company? Does anyone have 1950s in service photos?
