These aren't ACF cars, I take it?

They are two-bay Trinity?

Crappers, I have some nice Ciment Quebec decals from Highball too...

Trinity 3281, one of the most common modern two-bays.  these are actually former Tomahawk Railway cars... and are some of the first 3281s built (1999 IIRC).

The CQ cars are nice to have. The MG decals are perfect for them. However Athearn did a custom run of them South Shore Model RR club. Contact them to see if they have any left, or are persuing doing another run.

Do you need close up shots of these cars? CQ is our largest customer on NEGS, and we routinely deliver 30 car blocks to them.



Shot from a C&E 2370 extra I worked, showing their little yard switcher.
