"One difference between pessimists and optimists is that while pessimists are more often right, optimists have far more fun."
I have a question for some of you familiar with brass passenger cars. I recently purchased a set of Great Northern "Empire Builder" passenger cars. They are painted in Omaha orange and GN green #500 Baggage car, #501coach, #502 diner, #503pullman, #504 vista dome, #505 observation. They are in blue boxes marked Balboa. They are all brass with interiors. They do not appear in the Brass Trains Guide. They are beautiful cars, very well detailed. Does anyone have any information on them. Thank you
