A couple of years ago I saw one of these cars on the tail end for a train pulling out of Harlingen. I assumed the guys sitting there were boozing it up. Apparently my mistake.
My question. What is the point of attaching this car to rear of the train on the layout and seeing where you have been? That is never a compelling view. It is like trying to watch life in reverse. Why not stick the car in front of the engine and get a real look at where you are going.
