NW Dynamometer car

[NW Modeling List]

NorthWest Short Line imported an unpainted brass model of it.  There's one
for sale on eBay "as we speak".  Be prepared for "sticker shock".  From the
photos, a standard N&W passenger car decal set would give you the "Norfolk
and Western", and you should be able to create the six-digit road number
piece by piece.  The problematic part would be the word "Dynamometer";
Champ had (and again you might find on an eBay search) a "Passenger Car
Data" set that had the word "Dynamometer" in it - I used it on my Devore
model - but the font is wrong for N&W.  Probably would pass the "six foot
rule" test but not the "three foot rule."

Good luck!
