In looking at various photos of business cars with the last MoPac paint scheme, I notice that the eagle/buzzsaw emblem is oriented the same as a locomotive on the sides (pointing forward), and to the right on the rear. This is the standard orientation for this emblem on all equipment except cabooses and freight cars which have no front or rear. Do we know if any business cars without a rear platform (air brake instruction car) got this paint scheme and, if so, how did they orient the eagle on the sides?
Mr. Pollard, I might finally build and use an HO version of a passenger car if someone can suggest a starting point for this or one of the other business cars. I had to tolerate the damn things behind my caboose from time to time.
