                :|   For those who may be interested in the Prototype for the recent MT release, private car "Chico" this car is up for sale on the Ozark Mountain Rail Car web site http://www.ozarkmountainrailcar.com This car was built in 1925 as a business car for the Santa Fe numbered 37. It was retired by the railroad in the late 1970's and became Private Car "Imperial". Completely upgraded mechanically the car's third owner repainted it into Santa Fe aluminum color scheme restored it's original number, and added the name "Chico" honoring the little Native American Boy mascot used in railroad advertising and on timetable covers. This car never was named when it was a business car on the railroad. Nate Goodman (Nato). Salt Lake, Utah.   :|
