Notes

  1. Image Notes
    • Click on the image to see a larger view.
    • Items without an image are new arrivals and have not yet been put in service.
  2. Manufacturer Notes
    • If the manufacturer is in red, you can click to go to the manufacturers page for that car.
    • Many cars I have are out of production, so cars from Pacific Rail Shops and S-Helper Service will not have links.
  3. Paint Notes
    • Factory: Factory painted models are those that have been painted by the manufacturer.
    • Custom: Custom painted models are those that have been painted by an individual or a third-party service to achieve a unique or specific appearance.
    • Relettered: Relettered models are those that have had their road name and number changed to reflect a different railroad or specific identification.
    • Renumbered: Renumbered models are those that have had only their road number changed while retaining the original road name and other details.
