[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by BRAKIE [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by morrisbee40 Am I wrong, but are the major hobby suppliers ignoring the C & O. If my history is correct the rail line was a major player in the 60"s. I mean after all, they did purchase the B & O. Which if you love to model the B & O, there is no problem to purchase loco's and rolling stock. I have since started to model the "Chessie System", where I can run WM, B & O, and the C & O. Even decals for the line are hard to come by. Coal was king to the C & O, but try to find a large selection of hoppers. Maybe I am looking in the wrong places. I was just wondering if someone else, who loves the C & O, can vent with me. Thanks [/quote] Had you taken the time to do some research you would find that Athearn and Atlas leads the pack producing C&O engines.Athearn has several C&O cars.Walthers has the C&O wooden caboose.Atlas is producing the Magor C&O steel caboose plus the extended vision caboose.Athearn also makes a C&O extend vision caboose as well as a Chessie (C&O) extended vision caboose.Bowser makes the 100 ton 3 bay hopper..So,the C&O can be modeled without modeling the Chessie(C&O). http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hoscalebuses/ [/quote]
