Skytop Wabash 1601 Observation Car

[Bobster]

Greetings,

I was just curious on the progress of the Wabash car.   Look forward to seeing the results.   Thought I'd start a new thread since my last post on the other thread didn't get the hoped for response.

Thank you,
Bob L.

Nothing to report yet on the Wabash car but the TCZ baggage-buffet-lounge is making progress.

Bill,

Well alrighty then, still looking forward to it.  On another subject.

Maybe I'm having a senior moment, I'm not remembering,  what was the name of that baggage buffet lounge?

Thank you,

Great news!!!

The CB&Q TCZ baggage-buffet-lounge cars were named "Silver Salon" and "Silver Buffet"

I think you are going to have look into printing some decals for these CB&Q cars!

Bill has done all the hard work on all these castings, perhaps it's time for someone else to step up to the plate and make the decals for them.

Just sayin'

Yeah.  Seeing how slow he moves on these castings. 





I'm kidding people.  Kidding.

I will buy them from whoever makes them!

Greetings,

Baggage lounge?  Would there be enough demand for a Wabash 650?

Grasping at straws,

well, I'd buy exactly one.  I've been stalling on close-enough-for-a-moving-train kitbash long enough.

I'd have one but I can't paint or decal to save my life! I have heard that ConCor could be doing a Bluebird set....

Gerry,
ConCor has made past FOOB efforts on what they already had.  I'd rather wait and have it right.

George,
I'd buy exactly one 650 also.  But the question is are there enough "exactly ones" out there to make it profitable?

Dang, break's over,
Bob

Still hoping that Wabash 1601 at least is still in the works!
If it isn't then the TCZ Dome-Observation car would make a pretty good stand-in.

Any news would be welcome.

AND, don't forget the extremely rare Q domed - baggage "Silver Shed".  'Cause ya know, the Q put a dome on everything back in the day.   Yes, I have the Kato version. Now, If Kato would just make the E - 8/9s with the domes...
