I would like to acquire a train of Milwaukee Road orange and maroon 70 foot heavyweight coaches for my Milwaukee Road 4-6-4 qnd 4-8-4 to pull around. Did or does anybody still make such cars? I don't know where to begin my search. Thank you in advance for any advice you may offer. Odd-d

R.E. O.: Several companies made 70' heavyweight coaches, over the years, with Milw Rd colors, some more accurate than others. Check for MTH, who made several different variations from the earliest with silhouette windows to complete interiors with passengers installed. Also, Lionel and K-Line have offered Milwaukee Road cars in this configuration. I own at least four different sets, right now, and I got rid of my silhouette windowed cars in favor of those with interiors.

After you accumulate several of these sets, you can start on collecting Milwaukee Road streamlined passenger sets!

You should easily find what you are looking for. If it were me, I would look for a set of K-Lines. eBay is a good suggestion.
