Title: Bachmann Open Excursion Car Just Arrived

Well, at my house anyway.  I got the dark green body with red roof.  What a nice little car!  Thanks Bachmann!

PS, anyone else order any of these?

We have had them in the shop I work at for a bit over a month and sold through 2-3 batches of them. They are a great looking car and definitely a nitch filler. And best of all, they got the coupler height right this time.

If I had thought about, the Bach Man does have photos posted here:

These are HO but the N is about the same.

Not bad at all. Great models, and they look splendid. Just image that behind a smaller Prairie or ALCO locomotive. On a excursion layout, those would be perfect. I'll notify my friend, he's modeling Illinois Railway Museum that uses restored Pullman cars, but I think he'll be interested in these too. Thanks for sharing, even though I model HO scale, N scale, (as well as other scales/gauges), are nice to enjoy and look at time to time.
