This was a junk bin Walthers full length 0 scale car, less power brick. I needed a shorter version (they used to make one), so I chopped it. Some Texas Special FA or something power brick, used an old filed wound hand reverse under the carbody, added interior, paint and deca  ls. |

Nice. I like the RPO section on this. I wonder if it was an inspection car in an earlier life...

Very nice work, SC. The doodlebug looks great.

Most of these, due to branch line service, did passengers (sometimes with a second coach) baggage and even RPO for outlying communities.
Somewhere I have a mail pouch hook I could attach by the door.
But right now, gotta go put a bubble flare on the clutch line on the Jag.

Love them Doodlebugs. Been looking for a Chicago Northwestern one to add since they did come to my hometown.
