I see you are also a member of the PRR Historical Society… if you have received a copy of the Spring 2024 Keystone, there is an article on the former Wilkes-Barre branch. On pgs. 22 - 23 there are two pics of a Brill car which is very close to your 3rd Rail version. I found it fascinating that they were know to haul milk cars!!!

@Apples55 Paul,

I do have that issue and that is a great article on branch line operations. I've seen photos of these PRR Brills with two trailers before, but never three. Must be a flat area. That photo of one pulling a P70, B60, and R50 is great. When I first bought my model, I looked up the real thing and milk runs on those branch lines was common. Here are more front ends of mine with some trailers.

Also, that photo of the E6 pulling just a B60 and a P70 is another great branch line shot.
