N scale hot metal car

Howdy...while going through my stuff I found an old Trix mega bottle car and was wondering what US prototype models are out there for n scale steel mills?  I have a couple of brass bucket jobs but I've not seen anything like the Walthers HO model or the Treadwells or Pollocks.  You don't see much of this stuff on the West coast but I think a portion of a mill might be an interesting Vacation project as a stand alone dio.

Thanks

Joe

Here is an N scale hot metal car that was previously sold by Park Lane Hobbies in Dyer, IN.  Park Lane closed last year, but I believe these are still being sold, but I do not have a contact.  The person that makes these cars was at the NSE convention in Pittsburgh.  Perhaps they will also be at the NSE meeting in Utah next month.
