Re: Broadway Limited 6, 000 Gallon Tank Cars/ Walthers newly-announced tank cars - same prototype?
Until this minute I had not looked at the price of the Walthers thingie (I won't call it a model of a
railroad tank car) -- $35 !! Gag me with a spoon ! This is the kind of junk you pass by on a $3 table
at a flea market. Woof ! :-D

Hopefully the tank represents some sort of prototype. But since it looks like the tank bands are molded onto the tank (like the Bluebox "chemical" tank), my expectations are low.
