Cars in White

[csmith9474]

Overland Models is importing hospital cars in HO. They have a couple of color pictures of the model on the site that may help you. Let me see if this link will do what I want: http://www.overlandmodels.com/showroom.php?scale=4 

Edit: Just scroll down to "Passenger Cars" and click on "US Hospital Cars".

Jim,

Thanks for your reply.  The b/w pictures I have seen are hard to tell coloring.

 BTW,  I have relatives in Rochester, MN.

Jim,

  Most of the photos I have seen of the WWII 'hospital' cars shows them painted in standard US Army 'Olive Drab' with a small white panel/red cross.  IIRC, the Monon bought some of these cars and converted then to passenger cars after WWII.  Walthers used to sell HO metal/wood 'kits' of these cars at  one time.

My father worked on Hospital trains [US] during WWII.   Does anyone have pictures of "Trains in White" prototypes that could be used for guides in modeling?

Thanks,

JimC.
