For January we have nine all new paint schemes on our USRA hopper plus a couple of oft-requested re-runs with all new road numbers. The party is here:

PS. The ICC caboose tooling is still under construction so we're keeping the pre-order period open on those as well.

Since Atlas doesn't sell them please consider making the Andrews trucks available separately.

Cool, more P&WV and Montour!  Any plans for the plain ol' white lettering on black for MTR hoppers?

Thanks for all the C&O love, but when will we see a rebuilt 2 bay war emergency hopper in C&O?

Oh well, lets see......
a couple of NC&StL on top of the C&EI (8 panel) that are already on order and maybe a Montour for the heck of it if I can find a photo somewhere of one in Chicago, and maybe pick up one or two C&O from the earlier announcement just because I saw a lot of them as a kid and only seems right to have them in the mix, plus.....

And had not even occurred to me to load them with limestone- I bet some limestone moved on Monon that way, so might need to find a new load for one of the Monon hoppers I have.

I'm gonna need another mine and bigger steel mill.

Yes, Montour black USRA cars and C&O rebuilt war emergency cars are on our to-do list.

Sometimes it takes dealers a few days to get everything up on their sites but Walthers has it up (sans photo):  https://www.walthers.com/30-6-quot-2-bay-hopp-prr-3
