Serious junk.. 19 inch long 1928 Bing No1 gauge Pullmans. Two of them, one missing it's top. I think the numbers are 10/529 or 10/530... Do I have any other 1 gauge stuff??? ..... No.... not yet....

Not sure how tough these cars are to find, but I've only seen them in auction pictures and such. I will restore these.

Hi Dennis.

Based on this catalog page and my rusty German, what you have is the 10/538/1 - the Speisewagen (trip or tour coach). The 10/539/X is the Schlaffwagen (Sleeping coach). Based on your length of 19" I assign the /1 designation because the /0 is 13.75" long. I converted the metric descriptions in the catalog.

Nice find. Have fun cleaning them up and restoring them. I'm betting with your skills you can cut/stamp/replicate your own roof based on a template from the one you have.

Good luck with that locomotive <smile>.
