Are you referring to the lighthouse at North Truro, Massachusetts or the British Army infantry unit known as the Highland Light Infantry?

Or the small 4-4-0 steam locomotive known as the Highland Light class locomotive that was built exclusively for the Cape Cod Central Railroad and was delivered to the CCCR in 1867 by the Mason Machine Works of Taunton, Massachusetts and was made mention in Ian Fleming's James Bond novel, "Diamonds Are Forever"?

Never heard of it.:hehe: Sorry, couldn't help myself.
 
What about Union Pacific Coaches? We have quite many well done Amtrak cars, but this yellow American legend has only very simple cars from TRS2004-2006 era. I know, it's great we have at least any, but today it's different time and it could be good to have a new, better ones. I can imagine myself how great would be from JR production ;-).
 
Charlielima, your right about it being the small 4-4-0 from the Cape Cod Central. That's the one that had an emerald tipped throttle lever, Tiffany Glass lamp and water gauges, ruby tipped brake lever, gold and silver plated boiler plates, and many other gaudy things in and on the locomotive and tender. I wonder what happened to the engine? Does anyone know?
 
One of the ships crewman took the left-hand-side nameplate and tried to keep it for himself. It was made of brass, and brass during the 1790's was as rare as seeing an electric car in the 1950's!!
