Hey Brian,
Seems that you have a couple cool books on Pullmans, maybe you have some books listing the products of Jackson & Sharp or others. Since I don't get to the US often I don't get to browse books that might have more references to my interests, 2ft/60cm coaches that were built for Brazil. I stumbled on a J&S open observation and know that there were more coaches with claristory (sp?) and without. Has anyone seen references for cars built for railroads EF Cia Mogyana, CiaMurrieta, RamalDumont, Tramway Cantareira or others? Maine 2ft didn't have all the interesting coaches...thanks if you take a look at your library for me.
