TBOX - Atlas Gunderson 7550 cu. ft. Box Car (HO but could N be far behind?)

It's an HO scale preview but since it's Atlas, I'm really hoping they release it in N scale.
There aren't many freight cars that I want multiple but this has been on my list for years.

I second what @Englewood said.  Lots of these on the Hanover Sub heading for G&W YorkRail.

A TBOX model has been on my top-5 list for a long time -- right after a non-Gunderson 53' well car, such as this Thrall set that Atlas offers in HO...

Lobby!

I'd be in for a few. They could even add graffiti to some of the release's since they are also a blank canvas for the urban artists.

Hoping that Atlas will also sight in their shrink ray to the great bulkhead flatcar that they did in HO!  (Since the great ExactRail TTX flats are so difficult to find...)

Too new for me really, but it's only money, so I'd get some. I'll make more money!

I've gotten to handle lots and lots of TBOXes on my shortline. Paper rolls as far as the eye can see.

These cars seem to show up in every mixed freight train through my neighborhood. I showed my son the photo and asked him how many we should get. "10" was his answer...that's a lot of lawn mowing for him :-)

Was there a thread here with all the reporting marks that could be done with this body style, in addition to the yellow TBOX? I've seen KCS in both yellow and brown. I'm sure there are many others.

So can we look forward to some in N @Atlas Paul ?

Hard to find? Not really. They just released another run. Get them before they are gone!

When you do them. Put the graffiti on some of the numbers.
