Many years ago, Ambroid offered an HO model of a "Poultry Palace" as a part of their "1 of 5000" series. I built one, but Lord knows where it is now. Wish I still had the plans so I could build a large scale version. Anybody out there have a picture or plans of that?/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/unsure.gif

Ed,
I may have the plans but I'm in the process of moving from Dallas to Southern California so they are buried for a while/ Send me your email address offline and I will check when I have unpacked around February first.
Ambroid made two Poultry cars: The one that has been mentioned here:
Speedy Poultry and Reefer Combination Car which was in the first 1-of-5,000 series and issued in April 1961. It was followed by the
Livesay Poultry Car, which came out in 1966. This was part of the original series of cars (that I call the K-series). This looks like it could be a model of the prototype car Burl showed.
If you are interested in the Ambroid cars, take a look at my website, I have them all described with pictures and text (well, the text is kind of short in some places

)
www.trainweb.org/ambroidkits . I also have a few of the plans but far from all.

Hmm, this is my first post and I managed to get it all inside the quote. Not bad
