I'm just paying you back for confusing my F89J with an F85 :P

Oh, the humanity...  What's next?  How about a late ice reefer not of PFE vintage, or an early short mech reefer?

Maybe they will do more than one phase. I really like everything Trainworx does they have brought awesome quality on much needed models just like BLMA has done. I don't know much about who all owned the PD3000 but PC and Conrail would be very important road names to have and as far as I know they only had Phase 1 and possibly phase 2 cars. it just seems to me that the Phase 3 will yield mainly leasing company and private owner cars. I will still buy plenty because they are much needed and will no doubt be excellent models.

These cars are still in use today, we had 5 of the older versions being modeled here in a train of 14 cars carrying flyash for one of our customers in Eagan MN.   Look forward to this model and having a few on the layout.

We had some in at Framingham Yard a few months ago. The place has been deserted since CSX pulled out of Beacon Park in October. Traffic is so low, its just not worth it to go on a photo shoot anymore.

I'm glad I shot Worcester before the expansion project, and now I have plenty of time to put a decade's worth of freight car photographs in some sort of order.

I'll miss the PD3000s. They were always a really good looking car.

Now who will be making the PD5150?
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away
