I have broken down the Broadway Website listings of these cars and matched them with the Lot Numbers in Terry Links website. You will find that a number of the cars are not lettered correctly for what they are supposed to be. Terry's site also links the lot numbers with models that are available. Hope that this will help in choosing the correct 4-Pack or individual cars from Broadway!
