I have a green California and a brown California, but what other state names were these offered in?
Besides green and brown, where there other colors for the State set cars?

The other states were, New York, Illinois, and Colorado. Two Tone green and Two tone Brown were the original colors. They've been reproduced in other colors by MTH.
Back in the day the Illinois car was the add on car.
MTH has made a Maryland Solarium car. The also made in Brown and Green for one year. Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Jersey Coach cars.
They now make a Pennsylvania Baggage car.
thanks for the info gents!
And then there are variations in the cars stampings-rivet details, how the dormers are painted, etc.
Creswell offered State Cars in two tone blue for his Liberty Lines ...also offered in green and at least one of his super state cars is in orange and brown others could be out there ..

who is Creswell, and what is the Liberty Lines please?
Liberty Lines was built by H K Creswell ...up in WA from 1979 -----mid 80's + - ..producing some rather unique pieces in very small numbers...most famous for his 600E ...
He came up with a State car baggage car long before MTH .... ....
Fun stuff

I plan to put my Liberty Lines 411 Baggage Car up for sale on Ebay this weekend, starting Feb. 14 at 7:45pm PST 10:45 EST. The only issue with it is some (box?) rubbing of the Pennsylvania name plates on each side. Otherwise in excellent condition. My Ebay name is the same as my O Gauge Forum name.
