Now that 4-4-0 locomotives are becoming a little easier to find, I'd like to think that the market is ready for some 36' wood-sided (constructed of plastic) freight and stock cars as well as cabooses... along the lines of what orsonroy suggests!I'd be looking for 1880s to 1900 vintage Canadian Pacific in my case.Did you know that Algoma Mills was, for a short time, the western terminus of the eastern portion of the first Canadian trans-continental railroad?  Montreal was the eastern terminus.  Because of obstacles faced building the road over 800 miles of granite and muskeg in northern Ontario, the plan was to trans-ship passengers and goods by steamer from Algoma Mills to the head of the Great Lakes, and west the rest of the way by rail from Port Arthur (now Thunder Bay).
