Metra gallery cars — scale drawings?
Posted by CJtrainguy on Monday, August 11, 2014 10:01 PM

I am looking for a source for scale drawings of the Nippon Sharyo built Metra gallery cars.

And while at it, would also like to find scale drawings of the old Budd built Milwaukee gallery cars.

The May 1969 issue of Railroad Model Craftsman has information, photos, and drawings of the gallery (bi-level) suburban coaches of Pullman Standard (CNW)  St Louis Car (Milwaukee Rd)  Budd (Milw Rd, Burlington, RI) and ACF.

Awesome. I will go obtain that issue. That will take care of the Milwaukee Road gallery cars. Thanks.

Just need the newer Nippon Sharyo gallery cars now.
