    Can anyone tell me the physical appearance differences, between a Bachmann On30 Coach, and Bachmann On30 Observation car? To me, they appear the same. Except for lettering.

    :confused:

    I posted a short reply in O as well. The cars ARE exactly the same except the end platforms. I attached some photos, hopefully they are not too dark.

    The coach is numbered something like 75? And the observation is 9xx something?

    Must have been the angle of that photo I'd viewed. Couldn't see an end platform for the obs.

    :D

    #75 and #911

    Could you see it in my shots? If not I can get more up.

    Yes. :thumbs_up: I could see the platform in your shots. The photos I'd seen elsewhere, were at a slight angle. So the end with a drumhead was obscured.

    :D

    I guess "exactly" the same is not right either since as you can see in the photos, the observation car has windows in the end walls where the coach does not. Man, my powers of observation seem to be slipping...;)

    I saw the windows. Just figured they were part of the end platform differences.

    :D
