Greetings fellow freight car enthusiasts;

I'm looking for some HO scale Red Caboose RC-7003 ARA body steel plate
end box car kits for some car projects for my mid-1930's freight car
fleet. My local source has been unable to get them from Red Caboose and
a check of the RC web site shows virtually all of the RC X-29 and ARA
cars out of stock. The undecs show as out of stock and even the
common-as-dirt Pennsy cars are OOS. What is up with that?

Do any of you know of a source for these kits, or have a cache of them
yourself that you might be willing to thin. I'm looking for three of
them, eventually to become MEC, CNJ and B&O cars.

For that matter, I'd even be interested in an original Pennsy kit with
number appropriate for the early series with CRECO doors.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards, Rob Adams
