Ventilated Boxcar

[Matt Bumgarner]

Many of us here in the SE are thrilled with the recent releases and regional names of some of the On30 equipment (thanks Bachmann!). One of those cars/names is the Lawndale Railway Ventilated boxcar. Although the car is not "quite" right, here's the real deal that our local NRHS chapter is restoring- now THIS is a ventilated boxcar

Hey Matt,

this is a fantastic reference and keep up the good work.

Anybody else who wants to see how narrow gauge cars were constructed and what the interior looked like is recommended to Matt's original reference and the ET&WNC link on the page.
