Not to worry about the terrorist-cancelled public car trace. I did lots beforehand...a sample grain car, auto rack, welded rail car, TankTrain, lumber boxcar, Expo boxcar, and the afore-blogged WC gon. Stay tuned for these and of course more posts on Kingston.<br />EricErichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822288099043790296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372955869775302424.post-89010681411390374722011-01-07T17:09:31.213-05:002011-01-07T17:09:31.213-05:00Hi,

Oh, and if only the CN car trace was open the public again...<br /><br />-BryanBryannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372955869775302424.post-27237366812393292572011-01-06T21:09:08.060-05:002011-01-06T21:09:08.060-05:00Thanks for your welcome comments, Andy. You'r...Thanks for your welcome comments, Andy. You're right to keep your eyes peeled for ex-ACR cars. They're all mixed in with BLE, IC, BCR and other amalgamated roads, often in tie service. Good to have you aboard.<br />EricErichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822288099043790296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372955869775302424.post-41171924907403409912011-01-06T12:19:14.724-05:002011-01-06T12:19:14.724-05:00Eric-

I hope to model some of these gons on my layout. Living in Michigan, I don't see ex-ACR cars, however, I do look closer when I see some black gons go by on a CN train!! These cars must be nearing the end of their lifetime so better to catch them now then later I presume. Love your blogpage - the historical angle you take makes it refreshing.<br />-AndyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372955869775302424.post-69729532594024230162011-01-04T22:26:05.434-05:002011-01-04T22:26:05.434-05:00I agree with "WGACA" as you mentioned, E...I agree with "WGACA" as you mentioned, Elijah. Looking back at the many "fallen flags" railroads, there aren't too many mergers/takeovers left. I always thought Hawk Jct on the ACR would make a great layout.<br />Thanks for your comment,<br />EricErichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822288099043790296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372955869775302424.post-87754193095981141672011-01-03T20:36:17.240-05:002011-01-03T20:36:17.240-05:00I quite like the ACR, it's a shame the Central...I quite like the ACR, it's a shame the Central sniped them out.
