Still trying to determine if K Line produced additional 18" extruded aluminum Lackawanna passenger car models (for example, a baggage car), or if the same model cars listed below may have been produced with different car numbers or names.
K Line 18" Aluminum Lackwanna "Phoebe Snow" passenger train consist:
Railway Post Office #1819
Coach #321
Diner #469
Sleeper "Tobyhanna"
Sleeper "Cohocton"
Observation "Tavern Lounge" #789
What little information I have found on the internet verifies the car type and identifying markings for the six cars listed above. The Legacy K Line web site shows the 2005 1st edition catalog as listing K 4638D with four cars and K 4638E with two cars, but no car numbers or names. I have not seen the catalog itself to check the information accompanying the individual car listings. The othere catalogs listed show nothing for the 18" aluminum cars.
I have been in contact with the library at the National Toy Train Museum and plan to visit the museum/library during a trip to Strausburg in early April. The library is kindly assisting with the "Phoebe Snow" search, and as their reference resources on the subject are limited, additional documents and information sources would surely be appreciated.
If anyone has information concerning what 18" aluminum "Phoebe Snow" cars were produced by K Line, please advise.
Thanks in advance,
Martin
