Ross, great work. Heartily endorsed! It's nice to see the interest in A1G catching on. Maybe we'll have our own little movement before too long. As soon as I get a chance to update the site, I will

Hi everybody, Just a little spiel about a1g freight car wheelsets. Again, these observations are based on new cars purchased at a hobby shop and not on cars I got from eBay or whatever. Style 1: These

I have been interested in the Atlas 1.5 generation kits since I found out that they existed on George's Web site a few years ago. I have since collected most of the kits, and have taken some photos of

Hi everybody, I have a lot of time on my hands due to being unemployed right now, so I thought I would write another little screed \:") These observations are all based on inspection of cars that

After reading this post, I pulled out all my A1G cars (including the surplus stuff)and checked my 2206 cars (I own 5 of them). All five of mine are the same, blue lettering, but do have some slight

Hi everybody, Just thought I would alert all to the variations of this car in case it is unknown. The original Greenberg guide doesn't cover this. The supplement does but I figured that publication

I picked up a 2273, PRR caboose MIB recently, which is sort of interesting. Although the car is factory painted PRR, you can see patches of red paint in places where the carbody wasn't painted brown

They are sharp, but not as sharp as the smaller boxes. I can gather up the different boxes and shoot pictures of them since I do have the digital camera handy today. Edward Bridges Granger, TX

Well, I will be looking for a correct Roco style box for the car as well as the insert and cradle. The car itself is in excellent shape. I have quite a few of the Rivarossi style boxes here, but no

Edward wrote, in part: Yup, the Rivarossi style boxes seem easier to come by than the Rocos. After I wrote my little article about boxes last night, I went and dug through my older cars (chuckle, as

I have looked through my early cars that I bought directly from a hobby shop and have found that although what I said before is generally true, some of the pins which look like they were supposed to

That's exactly how the printing on those Acme trailers read. Kind of looks as if they couldn't get all the printing in. Rick

There are three of the 4 85' stock cars listed on that "auction site". All except the Northern Pacific car are listed. I will not be bidding on this trio as I own all four of the 85' stock cars from a

Having looked closer at your photo of your gondola packaging, I would say that that box was originally from a 0-6-0 saddletank loco (#2186). It has the "ATLAS MADE IN AUSTRIA" up in the corner and it

Yup, Edward, it's been re-boxed. The Roco cars in 5" boxes were never in the "snap" type boxes (well some were but they were still basically the sharp edged Roco boxes and the "snaps" were at diagonal

One of the two 2311's i have has this exact problem. One of the stirrups is not completely there, but there is no exposed plastic where it would have been broken off. Edward Bridges Granger, TX

I have posted a photo of the packaging I have for 2234 (Cotton Belt gondola). I believe this car was repackaged by its previous owner as the box looks very much like the boxes my WDT switchers came

I have posted pictures of the variations of 2311, 2312 and 2351 A1G cars. I hope these are of some help. I tried to get as close as I could to the ACME trailers but it didn't turn out like I wanted. I
