The Three Prototype Cars That These Models Will Represent.
Overall the cars will look the same. They will all be painted San Diego Electric Railway mission yellow with mahogany trim (Apparently the SDERy shops did all the painting for the various traction companies around San Diego). The only thing different will be the lettering schemes. Each car will represent the different company names that they ran under in San Diego.
Car #107
San Diego & South Eastern
(Monogram style) :
This model will become SD&SE #107 (I have other plans for #105. See below) with the nice monogram logo on the sides.
Car #109
Point Loma Railroad:
This model volunteered to become the Point Loma car when it lost it pilot! Originally I was going to go with the 402 number, but I have since decided to use its original number to help separate it from the SDERy class 5, 400 series cars that would come later.

San Diego & South Eastern
(Wells Fargo style) :
Okay, I'm going to use a little modelers license here. #105 didn't become a combination car until it was in the hands of the PE. But I'm going to do a "what if". SD&SE #101 (non-Niles car pictured above) was involved in an accident and was rebuilt into a combination car. But "what if" it was #105 that was in the accident instead? I'm mean, why not? It became a combo car eventually.
So that's the big plan for these cars. I think its a good plan. Yes sir! It's a good plan!
