New Haven Passenger cars

Mike:

Is this the type of car to which you're referring?

The "American Flyer" cars were distinctive - sort of heavyweight with unique windows, painted green.  If you want models in O Scale, Weaver is the game.

Post-war NH Pullman built, at Bradley's , IIRC.  These were Cor-Ten jobs with stainless sheathing. Unique to the NH, in the PW version, I believe.  Always loved those huge windows; too bad - so did the NYC jag-off rock throwers!

I plan on contacting Weaver this coming week to see if a custom run is possible for these cars.  If possible and financially feasable, am I the only one who is interested?

Hopefully between PRR and NH fans this is possible.

What was the usual consist of the Patriot?  Namely # of coaches, grill car, diner and # of parlor cars.  I presume no observation.  Was the grill next to the diner and were they used to separate the coaches from the parlor cars.

Thanks in advance,
