Domed passenger cars

[NW Modeling List]

I had a vague recollection of seeing a similar picture, but  when one 
reference seemed to say that the car went Wabash>CofG>N&W I  thought my memory was 
playing tricks.  However, other references say it was  Wabash>N&W>CofG (1970) so 
it very likely could have  been.
 
Do note from the pictures that the trucks on the AHM model are  not correct, 
but there are several sources for correct  trucks.

On page 65 of the book Great Trains of North America, there is a picture  of 
the 1613 in UP colors with N&W lettering.  The caption is wrong -  it says it 
was taken in 1961 - and it is credited to a J. K. Hayward.   This picture is 
the only reason I have kept this book.

According to the caption on  this  
_http://www.railimages.com/gallery/album05/aat_ (http://www.railimages.com/gallery/album05/aat)   probably not.  I don't 
pretend to be an expert on this car;  thank goodness for references, both 
hard copy and on  line!

Dave; Thanks for your correction. I am glad to know that the former  AHM (now 
IHC) P-S dome is an accurate model of the former UP/Wabash cars.  I was 
planning to paint mine blue and number it 1602, but will now do  1613. Do you know 
if the car ever ran on the N&W in UP colors with  N&W lettering ala the 
sleeper "National Colors".? Thanks again.  Dan
