There were TWO "Friendship" trains.
The one the Q painted up the XM for was the Abraham Lincoln Friendship Train. There was an earlier one that ran coast to coast
MTH has done a car in O tinplate and I did art for DeLuxe Innovations to do on their XM32 in N Scale. I don't know if its ever been done in HO
I have some material from online sources on both trains. There were some other special paint cars but good pictures are elusive
I am going to cc this post to the Steam Era Freight Car List to see if anyone there has any additional information

Ray,

Sorry, I overlooked the second line and I had not read Gerald Edgar's response. I remember the discussion he is talking about, but don't recall which list it was on. I think it was the CB&Q list.

I did say "attached" but if you look at the second paragraph, I indicated that the photo is in the PHOTOS section.

Ray,

There is no attachment. I don't think the BRHS list is set up for that. You have to post it in the "Photos" section or attach it to a message on the CB&Q list which does allow attachments.

OK, I am attaching a photo of what is listed as a FRIENDSHIP TRAIN from 1946. Is this just someones idea of a "what if" car or did the Q really have a car painted like this?

The car can be seen in the PHOTOS section, in a folder titled FRIENDSHIP TRAIN.

Would like to know if this is a Q car.
