Garth Groff asked:
I just picked up the current RMC (June issue, I think, but it's at
home right now) and noted that Broadway Limited is offering a PRR K-7
stock car. Forget for a moment that is car is sound equipped, since
in the fine print they mention that it will also be available with
out the noise. Have any members seen this car, and might they care to
offer comments upon it?

1. NO DASHES IN PRR CAR CLASSES.

2. I haven't seen this model yet. The drawing in the BLI ad on page
19 of the July RMC is of a Class K7A (NOT Class K7) stockcar, double
deck cars converted from obsolete Class X24 automobile boxcars during
the mid-1930s.

This model is ONLY correct for PRR. All of their other paint schemes
are bogus.
