Micro-Trains 77000 undecs

Does anyone where I might be able to get a few of these? Hopefully about 6. My regular supplies are have run dry.

It seems MTL doesn't release the undecs as often as they used to.

Thanks, Mike

What is a 77000? We don't all have the MTL catalog memorized.

It's the 50' smoothside Single sliding door boxcar with no roofwalk. Sorry for not including the info in the original post.

If you don't mind stripping some, BLW has MKT 50's in their "discontinued MTL" category. Possibly that is also the car used in the MTL Canadian Province train series.

As a last resort, removing the roofwalk and plugging the holes isn't that hard.  Drill out the holes with a 5/64 bit and use Evergreen 0.080 round rod.  A little careful knife, file, and sanding work will clean the roof up nicely.
