New here to the board and question about SCL.
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, June 5, 2006 1:05 PM
Hello.I'm new to this and any other R/R forum.I usually post on scale auto forums such as MC, HHMB and SAE.
I've always admired the work that goes into model r/r lay outs.It's a thrill to see such craftsmanship and to watch the trains in motion.
I have a question about Seaboard Coastline.I am currently researching any info on the yellow service trucks used by mechanics/machinist during the 60's.I want to buils a 1/24th scale model of one of the yellow service trucks for a friend whos father worked for SCL.
Can anyone here offer any help, links, photos of these trucks?
Thanks!

Can't help much, but have you posted on the Trains magazine forum in the Forum index?, you are more likely to find someone in there who has photos or knows where to find them.
This group is a bit too specialised on garden railways.
Good luck

I dislike abbreviations, how do you know that others have any idea what you are tlking about. This applies particular;y applicable to eople from other countries. You may or may bnot be aware but there are other countries beside USA.
