More four axle DODX flats, yay

[basementcalling]

Lots of meh. Those 40' hi cube boxcars might be the ugliest rolling stock MT makes.

[Englewood]

DODX 3 packs, Pemex 3 packs, the UP Arrowedge, and the CNW holiday trailer all sound very interesting to me. A very expensive month for me, after a long string of duds.

They would look much better if they rode the proper ride height.

The SSW boxcar with the new cushioned underframe is tempting.

They would look much better if they read the proper ride height.

…and the roof was flat.

[Dayliner]

The Action Red CP Rail 40' double-door boxcar works well for me, but ouch--the price!  It's been a while since I picked up new N scale rolling stock.

Yup.

I agree.

Also agree... but still getting one

Wassup with the UP Arrowedge being an unassembled, undecorated kit? Will it at least be pre-painted? Because one can just order a 3-D model from Shapeways and a set of decals for about the same price right now.

Nothing for me this month.

How about a CNW passenger 5-car pack with a mix of yellow/green and pure green cars.
Or maybe only baggage and mail cars. 

[Philip H]

I might get the UP anniversary car.  And the christmas trailer.  but otherwise . . .

[Ed Kapuscinski]

That Cotton Belt car is nice looking.

Also, I agree about that stupid 40' high cube car.
For a car that was such a minor thing in the world, they seem to be everywhere in the N scale world.
They're like a trope at this point.
