First time I had heard of anything connecting Sunset with eBay.

I bought the observation car not because I model SP, but because of the length. I model the GN and have a small layout. The layout has 18, 19 and 20 inch radius curves. My plan is to convert the car into a business car. I thought it would be a fun project. Far from prototypical but when you don't have a lot of space you have to get creative.
