Just received a Chuck Pack of 2 of these cars.  One in o\Original and one Late Billboard.  Great looking cars.  The Original is a darker brown color and the Billboard a reddish brown.  Will definately order more in the future.

The second half of the batch arrived late last week at our shop. My collection is complete and the budget shot until the next group arrives next year.

 :) Glad to learn the second batch is arriving.
BLW should be sending me the rest of my order.
May need to get out of retirement to enhance the budget for wagontops.

I have the first two models.

Since I have several Fine N Scale resin cars, I could not resist to put them in a train for comparison (changed full picture by thumbnail later) :



The FVM cars are on the right, FNS on the left.
They are not _that_ different, and I feel not discuraged to build the rest of my resin kits  :D
The only question is what color I should use.  So far I thought they should be Polly S Zinc Chromate Primer, the car on the left is Special Oxide Red.
