QUOTE: Originally posted by MICH CAL Go with the full sized boxcar, I think they look better. But what do I know I don't count rivits.[;)] I am not a fan of Bachman's passenger cars for the sole reason of the amount of drag and squecking the wheels produce from the wheels due to the copper rubbing against the wheels to light up the cars. Is there anyway to fix that?
Have fun with your trains

QUOTE: Originally posted by John Busby Hi All As a railway employee regardless of type of wagon get a variety of sizes on modern railways they are all the same with modernisation came standardisation. Back in steam and early diesle days they where all diferent sizes some where not even the same width the most common wagons are open wagons (Gondolas) with or without tarp rails and box vans. Unless you plan on a major coal moving line one hopper and two gondolas might be better. As it is a steam line I would expect a greater variety of stock than a modern one once things start to grow IF you can afford it have a policy of twos ie two Texas oil tankers two N&M stock cars and make sure the home road wagons out number the visiting ones. regards John
