I ordered the American Railroads Berkshire today from Charles Ro. ($499.99) I also ordered the Frisco Sound Car. (94.95) I looked up the engine, which is a Nickle Plate locomotive. It was repainted in 1969 to pull a consist of repainted blue passenger cars to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Go;den Spike. It was called the Golden Spike Centennial Limited. I wish someone like American Models would paint cars to match like they did the Frisco Meteor.
A lot of guys in our club are wondering why they are producing heavy weights for two railroads Lionel hasn't produced engines for. Makes you wonder? But, I just bought the New Haven Legacy PA set and I am going to call Lionel to see if the colors on the cars will match that engine. Also, Gilbert made the #290 series of Pacific engines that would pull these nicely.
