Boyd - <br /> <br />Before you get all fired up about buying a freight car, do you have any idea where you will put it? There is an interesting set of articles on the TRAINS site written by a guy who put a former ATSF caboose on a newly built track on his property near San Diego. a few years back. It gets into the costs of finding, buying and moving the cab to his house and building the track too. You should be in the ball park if you multiply most of his numbers by two as the costs have increased considerably with time. It ain't cheap... ($32,347.00 2000 $$) <br /> <br />LC
