What passenger cars does the NYSW use in the tourist fleet? Any models? Could i possibly make one with Walthers new pass. cars?

Hi Andy
I guess you could use any of the current production models from various manufacturers to model the current NYSW
It all depends on how prototypical you want to be
I used a AHM heavyweight Business car to do the otto Kuhler #510
a little kitbashing from a concor dome and you could do the popemobile #509
contact the NYS&W historical society at NYSWTHS.com(Ithink that's the right address)
about the only cars not in production are the ex long Island ping pong commuter coaches
hope this helps

Only thing is- that's for The president, or working on a train.

I didnt understand your last post Andy- the link provided goes to the NYSW historical society. If you're looking for pictures of the cars they use, do a google search.
