I have been trying to get someone to make one of the 57" Jackson and Sharp 
coaches for years and finally gave up and made it myself. They were all over 
the world, I found an ex-Sierra Railroad one at the Sacramento museum. I wonder 
if there are enough people interested in these cars to get someone to make 
urethane castings from my patterns.

Great information on Jackson and Sharp on the Delaware State Archive website 
where hundreds of digital photos and drawings can be downloaded.

Amazingly the beautiful On3 Grandtline trucks scale exactly to S Jackson and 
Sharp trucks. I cut down the backs of the sideframes for p64 wheels and added 
wood beam brakes.
