WAG XM-1 box cars?


Tim O'Connor
 

Are the WA&G cars also XM-1's? Why didn't Martin do lettering for
these cars? Were they modified so much it would have required a new
kit?

Hi , The WAG cars were used B&M cars bought in the '50's . We did one of the versions for a convention car in O scale , seems that basic repair and paint were all they got . Sylvan did the cars for us , one piece body , excellent job , still have a few left if you are interested , WAG or B&M with decals by Jim Wilhite and Greg Komar . Bob Jones , Ct.

Thanks Bob and Eric for pointing out the Sylvan and F&C versions
of the XM-1. So there are THREE XM-1's out there?? Any one care to
take a stab at comparing the different models?? :-)

Thanks!
