@gunrunnerjohn posted:FWIW, MTH produced a three-car set of Strasburg woodside cars in 2009, it included #88 Marian.
It's weird because MTH has alternated between the 'Marian' and the (fictional) 'Lancaster County' as the observation car in that 3-pack add on set. The distinctive feature of the NS exclusive is that it does not have the observation deck, just as the real one.
I liked being able to purchase it separately as I'm not really interested in having the baggage car from the add-on set and wouldn't want to break up. As a side note, MTH closing (?) had factored into my decision to purchase it as the cars may never be made again.
