The boom car will be a simple flat car long enough to guard the boom.

HI Christian

I have a picture showing half of that flatcar. It doesnt show the number...Sorry. This car is right here in the Delson railroad museum. But it's winter here and the museum is closed. Go to their website, there is a roster listing the car numbers. Give me your email and I will send you the picture.

Regards, Christian

HI Christian from Germany!

I was at my local hobby shop this weekend and what do I see ? an Athearn ready to roll CP big wreaking crane numbered CP414501 ! It comes with a boom car, equiped with a caboose type cabin on the far end. This is not the boom car that I saw in the Delson museum...
