Seeking New York Central RR cars: 1 caboose, box car(s), sleeping car(s) for rail trail

New York Central cars (particularly freight cars) aren't easy to find. And buying, restoring, and transporting them costs big bucks.
The following link will take you to one of the biggest "used car dealers" in the country. They specialize in old passenger equipment. But you might want to take a look. www.iltransit.com/pcfs.html

Hey Dilly: Thanks for posting that link. I spent a delightful couple of hours looking through the equipment for sale. Well beyond my means or expertise to buy and refurbish, etc. but it was a fun fun fun to imagine what I might do. Thanks again!! Ira

FYI-- former NYC sleeper-lounge car "Rippling Stream" still exists. It is in Texas, and owned by a friend of mine.
