Jim,

On baggage #1 or #2. What I would really like is an HOn3 kit for their sister UP #1001 (South Park #41, C&S #103) but in original form with end platforms and full roof, ca 1890-94 when running on the GSL&P. Reversing a kit for baggage #1 or #2 to this earlier state seems a massive undertaking and not for the faint-hearted, which stops me in my tracks. My preference is for the South Park version of these "sister" baggage cars (40, 41 and 45) and let folks cut off the platforms and roof to make C&S #1 and #2. Ha! I'm sure that idea would be laughed off this forum!
