A list of manufacturers, models, and car numbers of Green Bay Route locos and cars.

The latest addition:


GBW 402, 403, 405, 408
411, 413, 416, 418
Z Scale Hopper from Full Throttle
Much thanks goes out to Bill Wright for developing the majority of this list, and to Darin Umlauft and Bob Wandel for filling in many of the details.  Check out the freight car rosters to determine the time frames when specific types of cars were in service.

Most of the photos are linked to larger images of the models.  Click on the model number to see the enlarged photo.

It's a big challenge keeping this list current since I don't model in every scale!   If you can help add to this list send the information to mark@mathu.com.

If your browser is compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later, you can click on any column head in the table to sort the table accordingly.
