| Prototype Information — |
- The prototype, a 1952 corrugated-side
car originally operated by the Burlington
Route as the "Burlington", is still in
use today. It now carries the name "Mississippi" as
part of the BNSF executive fleet.
- Also known as Private Cars, Business
Cars have existed since the early days
of railroading. They are generally self-contained
with office, meeting room, track inspection,
entertainment, dining and sleeping facilities
on board for railway officials and their
invited guests.
- Assigned to key railway personnel for
the purpose of inspecting track and traveling
on company business, these cars were often
handled on the rear of a convenient regularly
scheduled passenger run. Today, it is not
uncommon to see them at the back of an
Amtrak or freight train.
- It is not unusual to see a Business Car
from one railroad on another railroad's
track.
- Some political candidates have also utilized
Business Cars while "whistle stop" campaigning
for elected office.
|

- Past winner of Model Railroader Readers'
Choice N Scale Rolling Stock Model of the
Year Award.
- Two different car names for nine popular
railroads (Amtrak, CB&Q, PRR, CP, NYC,
UP, SF, Southern, SP). An Undecorated model
is also available.
- Union Pacific, Santa Fe, Southern Pacific
and Undecorated cars are guaranteed to
still be available through all dealers.
(Availability of other roads subject to
dealer stock.)
- Interior can be dramatically lighted
with optional installation of #11-209 DCC/DC
Lighting Kit or 11-204 Analog Lighting
Kit (sold separately).
- Magnificant recreation of corrugated
siding.

Budd Business Car BNSF #1 "Gerald Grinstein" -
Originally built in 1952 for the then-president of the CB&Q Harry Murphy, BNSF #1 has had many names, including CB&Q “Burlington” and BN’s “Mississipi River” - today it has been refitted and relabeled with BNSF’s new “Swoosh” logo and the name of former BN CEO Gerald Grinstein who was part of the merger of BN and ATSF into the BNSF. This model will replicate many of the specific details of this particular car, including a custom built rear porch, dome antennas on the roof, and the new name plates that are mounted with the BNSF lettering atop the car’s corrugated ribbing. |

Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
