Reynaulds still lists them https://www.reynaulds.com/catalog/dept_1880.aspx.  The handful of times I have ordered from them they have always come through. It just takes a while.

Are those US prices that are shown?

41.04 each and 10 bucks shipping for the 2 . Comes with decals . They take Paypal .

Those are very cool, and make a great looking load. Nice job.
What era would they be appropriate for? Probably too new for my ‘51 cut off date?

I can prove 1964 , but I saw a model of it "MF830 " dating to 1960 . They look a lot older so I don't care , like Jimmy Harvest Corn .

Unfortunately Reynaulds website does not show real-time inventory.  It is best to email or call them to verify if the item is in stock. Even with freshly released products.

Beautifully done!!  ON 1517 crossing Rutherford Creek is a loooong way from home!

Well, it all began 4 or 5 years ago when my stepdaughter expressed an interest in the school musical.
We accidentally showed our hand that we could design and build interesting things, such as a Dr. Who TARDIS book shelf, and a fully functioning trebuchet for launching pumpkins.
Over the years now we have built all manner of stage sets, including a streamlined Greyhound bus and a two story house that spins on an axis.
This year's challenge was a working human cannonball for the circus scene in "Big Fish".
It took a few tries to get it just right, but fortunately, children are a renewable resource...


Flyin' Ryan is portrayed expertly by Thud Fallwell
