Family models

I just noticed a thread titled remarks. This may follow that theme?

I received a phone call from Lloyd Keyser the other night. During our conversation I had the opportunity to needle him again about the Sunshine CNW gondola he did the masters for. It seems the model has 5 grabs on it's side right end while the prototype has 4. I must have mentioned this to him enough that he finally confided that he was told to do that so the sides could be used for other models.

I have often thought that when Sunshine makes kits for a 'family' of cars there are more errors than when a kit represents a single prototype. Lloyd's confession confirms this assumption.

PS Lloyd also said he has finshed the side for the another series of CNW gondolas.
