Description

NEW ROAD NUMBER: Baggage 9121 was one of 100 cars in this series built by American Car & Foundry in 1946-47 for the NYC.  These cars were used for Mail Storage and Baggage as they were designated for ‘general service’. They were used all across the New York Central system.

David Randall’s book is great documentation of these cars, yet states that ‘it is unknown if all 100 cars in this series had end doors’.  We are producing this car since his documented authority sheds this doubt.

The Two-Tone-Gray NYC paint will match Kato’s recent release of the 20th Century Limited.

Built buy ACF, this is a classic version of this car.

The thing I love about all the things you do is the fact that everything is so well thought out, so beautiful and so unique.

Just wanted to thank you again for the opportunity to be with you and the many other happy folks who experienced the Feather River Canyon trip.  I know you put a lot of work into making this special trip a reality and it all came together extremely well!

Just a quick note to acknowledge receipt of my AFT Tool Car. Thanks so much for another Outstanding Piece of Craftsmanship! The AFT is my most prized “N” Scale collection. I had perceived that there were delays in getting this last car into our hands, but thought it was a problem with China. Your letter…

I am looking forward to many more releases in the new year. I stayed up really late on Christmas to talk to Santa when he came by our house. I asked him for an n-scale SP&S 700, and he said that was out of his league and I’d better call you.

I got my new Santa Fe business cars, they are superb and worth the wait ten times over.

Ferdinand Magellan is great! This really fits your mission of offering significant cars that otherwise wouldn’t be produced.

Nothing better than receiving that white box from Lowell Smith.
