1:29 scale USA Trains 70 Ton coal car next to 1:32 scale
Accucraft Daylight photos:
This is to help gauge how these USA coal cars might look up

pictures, it looks good.

1:29 scale USA Trains Passenger car next to 1:32 scale
Accucraft Daylight photos:
My hope was to maybe get a set of USA passenger cars for the
Daylight, but as nice as these cars are, they are just too big.

In the February 2005 issue of Garden Railway Magazine, USA Trains

Pictures of the MTH Dash-8. Looks much better here than in the production
photos. This also gives an idea as to the difference in truck to frame
height between the Aristocraft and MTH engines.
Examples are provided of an MTH box car (Norfolk Southern) and an Aristocraft
(Green).
