I think La Belle makes (or made) kits to make a open sided excursion car. Bachmann makes a nice one in HO scale. They actually have made two. It looks like for the more one elaborate one they followed the prototype of the Disney world cars Which are in turn patterned after Jackson Sharpe cars. The second is patterned after more modern homemade prototypes like those in use at Durango & Silverton.

 

I like the flip over seats on the more elaborate one. There is a great trolly car like this at Riverside Amusement park in CT that I rode on a few times last summer. Fun stuff.

Work Train Williams obsvn car cut down

Williams observation car cut by Terry Nelms of Lebanon, Tenn.  It proves the concept

of starting with a heavyweight passenger car.

The items in the open portion could be replaced with benches, tables and chairs.  Enclosed portion could be a snack bar or kitchen.  Many options.

This is all good stuff! I have a car in mind for a project like this.
