You say that there is another old "Skytop" in bad shape in Michigan? I wasn't aware that any others even existed. Being from Michigan myself, I'd like to know where it is. Also, do you have any photos of the car? <br /> In the mid-1970's, I was helping the "Little River R.R." put into service 2 ex- MILW coaches that were in terrible shape. Shame it was, these beautilully designed cars were constructed of common steel. When we got the coaches for the LRRRR, the vestibules were totally rusted out, and there were roof leaks as well. It's been about 15 years since I have been involved in the LRRR, but last time I saw those coaches, they were looking pretty good. I always thought that a "Skytop" obs. would have really been the "cream on the pie" for the LRRR train. <br /> Please give me some details on where this "lost" skytop is......... <br /> Todd C.
