Paul,
I hope you enjoyed the show and think it was worth the trip. I'm not quite sure I understand your reference to "a bit of a stretch" about the milk car. I have seen a picture of a full-scale "New Haven Safe Milk" car on-line although I have no further information. Weaver made a similar model of a 40-foot refrigerated milk car. Mine is shown below.

Mel;
I really enjoyed the show (posted something on the Amherst thread). Assuming decent weather next year, my knees should be in much stronger shape and I will definitely consider doing a full day. As for the stretch, I didn’t think this was strictly a New Haven Railroad car, rather a car from a New Haven company. But I really like the green in your version!!!
