@Bob Harris posted:I wish Scott would get with the program and get that Observation off the description. It is not correct for the Eagle train in either version. They never ran that car, it is correct only for the Missouri River Eagle and its train 1939.
Both MP and T&P only ran the Pullman Dome coach I can give him a photo of a 3000 dollar O scale custom built brass model to replace it Lettered for I G N # 896 in the Eagle Blue and Gray.
It would be more of what he is going to make. The way it is now to me is misleading.

I hope you’ve seen Scott’s updates for the EAGLE by now. I think the revisions will satisfy most prototypical fans. A option to choose an observation car (always popular) or a prototypical 14-4 sleeper is really a nice deal !!! I REALLY welcome the 14-4. Scott also added a Correct B&O 10-5 in the extra car department. Also a great Add.
We can now put together a Really Cool consist sans observation car - the 6 “core” cars of bag, express, chair, dome chair, grill, diner PLUS at least 5 sleepers - 10-6, 14-4, Penn 10-6, B&O 10-5, and 5BR-Lounge (and a 6th NDM if you wish). Those with monster layouts (or access to club layouts) can add additional Chair, dome chair, 10-6 for a huge consist.
Hope these revisions are acceptable enough to get you “buy in” and make a reservation. They are a significant improvement for the offering !!!!
Cheers. 🙂
