Larry,
The positing to the White Pass Yahoo group was done on July 16 by the group owner, Boerries Burkhardt. The post was that if anyone wanted to get contact information to ask him. I think the entire text of the post was copied on the message that started the thread on this board.

Group,
I have information that White Pass is scrapping or selling these historical passenger cars:
216 Brill c1887 exT&SL, xCr&N
238 WPY 1922
244 Carter 1883 xSPC, NWP
248 Harlan 1883 xSPC, NWP
254 Pullman 1885 xNpC NWP
258 Hammond 1937 xPC
For any reason why? I don’t like to speculate. But maintain old cars for a daily operation, cost is very high.
And shipping down to the lower 48 for sale is also very expensive.
Get in contact with your favorite historical railroad. Mabye they have interest.
I can give future contacts directly.

His whitepassfan.net website had a problem and he has not yet rebuild it. So you can't get to him through that.
He has posted to NGDF using the name "Whitepasser"
Borerries is also on Facebook.
