Last year at a show I found a 622 that looked too good to pass up this year I found two cars I wanted to custom make for the engine I stripped them both and found out I like the pewter look of the frames painted the body's and added a man .. I'm going to add at least two more cars a flatcar with stakes and a searchlight car both from the 50.'s So I can strip them also..
The pewter Look on the cars make the Lionel cars look to me what I used to see in the old model railroad mag and books...
