Hi Jeff,
I went on line and registered with the CPHA and looked at the folio
sheets. Business car no. 5 is not the same as the car Jack Work did
in his article and that Van Hobbies imported. The Business car No. 5
I am looking for is only 35 feet long, wood construction, and was
built in 1912 in the company shops. There is no other information in
the Model Railroader article of 1956 other than how Mr. Work built
the car. There is a nice drawing of both sides of the car but no
interior which is what I am after. Photos, some underbody information
would be nice too.
I looked at a lot of folio sheets on line after registering and see a
101 projects to model.
Thank you for any help you can offer,

With DCC I would be able to light different sections including the
marker lamps at will. My thinking
The interior of the cars were stained pine. There were 2 restroom
and 5 side lamps in the car. I have no record of the furniture
finish.
I may be wrong but I think there are folios of these cars in the
CPHA Library. Give it a check and if there isn’t any let me know
and I can forward you a folio for the car.
