The two latest Great Northern boxcars from Andy Petersen Supply. These are cars #8 and #9 of a 10 car series from Andy. in real life the Great Northern RR had painted 10 boxcars in experimental paint schemes and had their employees comment on the paint schemes as the boxcars traveled thru the GN system. They became to be known as the Great Northern Circus Boxcars.
