Hey Nick...I'm a young railroader up here in NY and I model MN operations as well. <br /> <br />I understand your frustration with the lack of manufactured models of MN equipment and commuter stuff in general. <br /> <br />There are manufacturers out there, they just usually aren't too into promoting their products (Isn't that ironic? ...if they actually did some research and marketing, they'd see the buyers up and down the east coast, as you prove). They almost never have web sites...until recently. <br /> <br />I know of a couple of manufacturers of M1/M3 cars (The ones used on Harlem and Hudson lines, blue stripe), but they're all brass...in other words, expensive. But they're out there. Try http://ihphobby.tripod.com/ <br /> <br />Walthers also makes the comet/shoreliner coaches and cabs for MN, CDOT, and NJT. Go to http://www.walthers.com or look in the big book for them...they're about $15 or so. <br /> <br />I also have plans for various MN stuff...if you're really stuck I could probably dig them up. <br /> <br />Anyway...hit me back and let me know if I can help. <br /> <br />Also, I'm a web developer and I've actually been thinking about starting a commuter model railroading web portal (Sort of like trains.com, I guess)...if you're interested, I'd like to get some modelers like us together.
