Subject: [RealSTMFC] StLB&M flat car

 

Folks,

 

In the movie "Troop Train", StLB&M flat car 8376 is featured as part of a pre- or early WWII movement of troops with their equipment. A quick check of the 1943 ORER show that there are 50 cars in this series and that these are the only flat cars with StLB&M reporting marks. Does anyone have any additional information on this series of cars? 

 

I note that Mask Island has decals in HO for them so I also wonder if there is an appropriate HO model?

 

Regards,

Bruce Smith
