From: Alan Lambert Lone Star Flyer club Bob, Iwould be interested. It would go with my 2-8-0 that I am thinking about changing to scale couplers like Brooks. Even though it has highrail wheels. It's a starting point for me. Thanks, Alan

According to what I can find out, this car was part of a fleet that hauled new Studebakers from the factory. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/photos/album/1775582643/pic/1964048061/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc This car is unusual in that it has a radial roof, which is shown in the end photo. It is an unusual car that would be seen in all parts of North America, that is, anywhere people drove Studebakers, and I wondered if there is enough interest for one of our kit manufacturers to consider offering a model. I can supply detail photos, since the car is virtually in my back yard. Bob Nicholson ____________________________________________
