This car is one of the most sought after pieces of Post-War rolling stock. It probably was never sold seperately and was only issued as part of the Santa Fe O27 set 1535W from 1955. According to the Greenberg set book, the 1535W was shown in the advanced catalog with a carry-over 6464-50 Minneapolis and St. Louis box car. However, it is believed that they ran out of those box cars too quickly to fill all of the orders, so they painted some of the blue 6468s brown to keep the continuity with the catalogThe car body is a modified 6464-style double-door automobile box car. It is painted tuscan on a black body mold with white heat-stamped lettering. Car is actually numbered "6468" with "AUTOMOBILE" and "B&O" logo on the right. It features a brake wheel, diecast bar-end trucks and operating couplers on both ends. The correct box has "6468X BALTIMORE & OHIO AUTOMOBILE CAR". The "X" is rubber-stamped to the right of the "6468". |
