Hi Tom, Welcome to the TrainBoard. Boy, that takes me back some 60 years. I had a few Varney and Ulrich cars, though most of mine were Mantua, IIRC.
Welcome to Trainboard, Tom. Aside from modeling, living in Portland, have you visited the new home of SP 4449, SP&S 700 and OR&N 197 at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center?
