3 "consists" that run all the time B&O AHM baggage car Athearn coach Athearn Ob Western Maryland All Athearn 1 Baggage 1 Baggage/combine 4 coaches 2 Obs Half are Bev-Bel, the rest are Doghouse hobbies The Entertrainment Line These cars were all part of a real consist, that I had the pleasure of riding these cars in 94 and 95 as a Conductor for ETL before they folded. They were all pulled by Maryland Midland engines. All the cars except 2 were either scratchbuilt ot kitbashed or made from brass car sides, only 1 was right straight out of the box. They are: #33 power car, scratchbuilt former Army kitchen car that carried a 75 KW generator set to power the HEP stuff on the trains #53 the Mauve. Former NP coach converted into a diner. Bashed Rivi car #55 Dance car. Former C&O Gatsby's Tavern, made into an empty car with a DJ stand at one end and lots of speakers in the ceiling. Bashed from a Rivi coach. #3302 the "Geo Hooper" Former B&O closed OB car, used as a diner. Bashed from a Rivi Heavyweight Diner # the bras'dor Lake. Former CN diner/kitchen car. Made from modified brass sides on a Bethlehem core kit. #5300 former Seaboard car, converted to diner. Bashed from a Con-Cor kit #1155 Pennsy cafe diner. Thank God Walthers did this one right!!!!!!!!!! 2 other plain coaches, ex NJT, the road numbers escape me at the moment. and finally bringing up the markers, "the Northern Lights" private rail car that could be added to any train(for a fee) for private parties. Lightly modified Kato car fits the bill. There were other cars (dome and a ex-pennsy twin unit diner) that I will do someday, but thats enough for now.[:D] [img]http://users.adelphia.net/~wmry1407/gp9200.jpg[/img] Here's a little shot of the head end with the power car.
