Brickworld Chicago Bound

Well, not me anyway. My New Haven Coach-Smoker is finally lettered up and on the way to Illinois to join a New Haven passenger consist. I look forward to seeing photos of the full train. I must say the New Haven heralds over the trucks seem a tad small for 1:48...

Canadian National PB-79-A Air-conditioned Coach-Smoker

Second in a series of lightweight coaches built by CC&F in 1954, these cars quickly became signature cars of the Central Vermont Ambassador and Grand Trunk (New England) Train 16/17. Needs more accurate trucks than the Osgood-Bradley stand-ins, but otherwise ready for build. Full interior and underside.
