Sure thing, keedo...
This is, I think, a car kit from Tichy, representing a single sheathed wooden boxcar that has had the wood siding removed and new metal cladding added to the exterior side of the bracing. Remnants of the bracing shows at the sidesills...

Looks like I'm talkin' to myself, but here's one that fits the bill, a Rivarossi coach modified into a pretty-decent representation of one of the CNR's "Mountain Observation Cars"...

Show me something (rolling stock, locomotives, etc.) based a prototype railroad whose name begins with an "M", please.

Thought that I might as well throw in this one, since it's at least a different number...

My story is — the car shop replaced several side-sheets and didn't bother with stenciling the W A B on the side. When I get around to weathering I'll be sure to make those panels look "new".
