Micro-Trains TH&B boxcar? Was there one? was created by chrismears
Hello. I'm really just easing my way into Z scale and starting to collect some models. I thought I had seen a photo online somewhere of a 40' box car produced by Micro-Trains that was decorated for the Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo Railroad. I tried searching around the internet but could only find references to a car they offered in N.
I'd like to have one but couldn't see if it had ever been done. Maybe the one I saw was a custom painted car?
Thanks
Chris

Hello Chris,
Welcome to Z Central Station!
I was just on Micro-Trains site and checked their release database and they have not produced a TH&B rollingstock or engine. You may have seen a custom painted car, but I don't know who did it.

Thanks John. I kept looking around the web a little today and still couldn't find one. Then, by accident, I saw one in a video by Chris Schmuck on Youtube:
...there it is at 0:22
I'd sure like to learn more about that car.
Cheers, thanks for the reply John.

I should have tried this at the start but it occured to me to simply comment on Chris' video and ask about the car. Chris was kind enough to reply and recommend Dan's Resin Casting as the providers of the decals:

Scrolling down that great list of Z decals I see a TH&B set. I just purchased some more 40' box cars on eBay and will now have to order some of these decals to try out.
This should be fun!
