Maybe Rapido knows!

you can just see the top bits of the AB valve and the release rod in this 1954 view... looks pretty conventional to me -- *Tim O'Connor* *Sterling, Massachusetts*

Bill, My search through the Walthers catalogs only showed the PFE and RI reefers under the Prototype Modeler label. Ken Montero

Ray, You have a kit that is vintage 1979-1982. Researching through old Walthers catalogs, Prototype Modeler's first kit #1001 was a PFE R-30-13 reefer

Here are three NYC/P&LE cars in the pipeline. The Tichy car with the RC roof is in the center. Only one of the three has been completed. Bill Pardie

Ray: You are correct that this kit was marketed through Prototype modeler in the early 1980s. There was a PFE kit offered about the same time.Plans for this car appeared in the Train Shed Cyclopedie

That’s 14 pages of up to 20 files per page, ditto for the Steam Era FC site. Steve Hile

The cars in question were built by GAC in 1924 as RI 67750-67999. They were quite similar to a contemporary PFE car (I think R-30-13) but with ladders instead of grabs on the ends and sides.

Ray Carson asked: "I went to the train shop recently and bought some kits, this is one of those kits. I believe Prototype Modeler was involved with this wood kit, but I looked through the TrainLife

What happened to all our files? STMFC has only 3 files? Resin only 14???? Thanks! -- Brian Ehni
