It's a news story piece, but about 1:52 and 3:25 you can see a my triple head of h-4's and h-5's pulling 75 cars.

Thanks Bachmann for supporting the C&O and your good customer service.

(I have your Berk, J-2, a small fleet of 2-8-0's as well)

Happy Holidays
Don

Some are Branchline blueprint 40ft reefers.  They are an EXCELLENT detailed kit for the money.  They are designed for the mid-skill modeler.  You should have no problem picking them up for $12-$16/car.  The other cars are mostly Atlas reefers.  They are fully assembled and the details is second to none.  All the doors open, even the icing hatches, which you can prop open.  These are quite costly however.  It's been a while since I bought my last one, but they were $32.00 four years ago.
