Reply to "Flyer prewar O gauge diecast passenger cars"

Those are nice looking passenger cars in great condition! Gilbert sold those passenger cars in sets pulled by a 561 Pacific, a 570 Hudson or a 571 Northern. All these engines are diecast. Only 2 of the heavy weight cars were included in a set, the other cars were the light sheetmetal design. Postwar these cars were made in bakelite, and in later years a lighter plastic.
