Civil War Boxcars

The Rose Gulch and Portland Railway gained these wonderful wooden box cars through the generous labors of the "yard crew". As you can see, they are very detailed, including brake wheel, and undercarriage. These fine crafted models even have doors that open! One of these days I will have a layout worthy of such craftsmanship. They do look good behind either of the 4-4-0's or the 0-4-0. They look a bit tiny behind a modern diesel.

Really nice. How about an end view? or Top view? Or a line of them on a siding?
