Title: Jackson and Sharpe Passenger Cars - Coach and Observation Differences?
Post by: jviss on March 02, 2020, 05:06:22 PM

Hello again, Bachmeisters,

I wonder what's the difference between the coach and the observation car. Is it just the rear rail and drum head? Does every road's observation car have a drum head?

Thanks,

jv

Hi,

On the Bachmann J & S Passenger cars, the only difference is the rear railing and the drumhead. In the real world observation cars had many different configurations(club car, lounge, etc) and many did not have a drumhead.

Thanks for the reply, Bill. That's what I thought. I will go with an observation car without a drum head; I just ordered enough black metal rails for my 3 car consist, two coach rail sets and one observation.
