In addition to pulling passenger varnish, I need some suggestions for a 10 piece rolling stock consist (not including the caboose). Since I would like to only put 10 cars together I would like nothing in duplicate such as 3 coal hoppers with different road numbers. If Erie Lackawanna pulled freight from other railroads, I would be open to adding something else cool in the consist also. Please include any pictures, product numbers, or video links.
Thanks,
Chas

Chas, Let's do this the easy way. What industries are on your layout and what products would they receive and ship by rail? Find the origins of the inbound product and pick a railroad serving that area. While you may not need that particular railroad's rolling stock today, if you expand and have a spur or two those cars could be spotted. at the business. John
