The Athearn RTR 50' Youngstown plug door Erie Lackawanna boxcar is an exact match, and is a wonderful model to boot (nicely painted and lettered, metal wheels). Walthers' car is a North American leasing prototype, and is almost exact for the yellow 60000-series NITX/EL cars (you need to remove one of the vertical staffs on either side of the plug door to make it correct). The MDC and Bachmann cars aren't even close... :( - Paul > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrisd_@_aol.com [mailto:Andrisd@aol.com] > Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 11:25 AM > To: erielack_@_railfan.net > Subject: Re: (erielack) RE: EL Blue boxcar > > > Hello, which one if any of the 3 models, Walthers, MDC or > Bachmann is a good > representation of the blue RBL's? > A few of these with Athearns RTR yellow RPL(?) would make an > interesting > consist. > > Andy Cole > ------------------------------
