    What do I need to build a 4547 facsimile? —Matt Nourot
   I'm looking for help and suggestions on what sets I need to buy to make a club car that looks like the 4547. I know that the bottom plates of the 4561 are needed, but can anyone tell me where the best place to obtain the windows and doors may be? I (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: What do I need to build a 4547 facsimile? —Kevin Wilson
   (...) The main question is, what color scheme do you want? If the same as a genuine 4547, grey, then you have a problem, because I think (someone will correct me if I'm wrong <g>) that the grey doors and windows only came in that set and the (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

        Black & Yellow 4558 Possible? —Bryan Wong
   Hey I haven't put much thought into this, but would it be possible to recreate 4558 Metroliner in a black & yellow colour scheme? Or maybe that would look silly... Bryan (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: Black & Yellow 4558 Possible? —Mike Poindexter
   (...) Bryan, I would say it looks far from silly! I built a Metroliner style engine and six club cars in yellow/black and I love the look of it.
