Nice model. Where did their cars go when WIF was driven out of business by the Cuban Revolution? Yours Aye, Garth Groff

The Atlantic Coast Line acquired the reporting marks, and still owned 5 cars lettered WIF in 1963, from series 300 to 349. Perhaps someone with a 1961 or 1962 ORER can tell us more. Tim O'Connor

Looking at the fineness of detail in this photo—ladder stiles and rungs, the post or ring at the corner of the roof grab for example—this could easily be mistaken for "O" scale I think or the the real 1-to-1 thing. The cross section of the curved portion of the ladder stile just perfect.
Really well done Lester. Bill Welch
