Don McErlean posted:LIRR steamer: When I saw your pictures today, I will admit a pang of jealousy (only kidding). You have the 6442-43 BROWN cars...I have been in search for them for years and never found a set in any sort of condition. Thanks for posting, even if I can only see the pictures its worth it.
Respectfully, Don McErlean
Thanks Don. The cars are difficult to find as Lionel produced this number series only for 1949. I searched for a while as well. The Engine is 1949 production so the cars are just the thing for the set. They do turn up periodically.
