Lounge Acquired for TGN OCS

TGN 8021 - RIO BRAVO - Arrives on the Property

Having decided to make the TGN business car fleet a reality, a roster was made, decals comissioned, and the first car purchased.  A Walthers Proto Rock Island 85' Budd 1-Drawing Room 29-Seat Lounge arrived today.  This car will be one of two club lounge cars in the fleet - TGN 8021 the RIO BRAVO.

I think I have finalized the paint scheme.  The fleet will primarily be stainless steel Budd cars.  The roofs and underbodys will be painted a dark green and the sides and ends will be stainless steel.  This is inspired by Southern Railway lightweight cars which sported a black roof.  I believe this scheme will be unique and not confused with other passenger car owners.
