I have this Kato car in N scale and was really pleased when I purchased it, only to find out later it is a total foob that bears only a slight resemblance to the prototype. 3 axle vs. 2 axle trucks being perhaps the biggest discrepancy, but there are other rather big ones as well. Still a nice car though. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/10/24 15:22 by tehachapifan.

I could be wrong but I recall the model is based on a CB&Q car.
