Re: Need help with Canadian Tank Cars
Yes Tony...I model the BN, but I'm not on the wrong list as the cars were built in the 1940's which makes them appropriate for this list.

Best to check with Dan via email on inventory, as he has restocked but the Southwest Scale website is not updated. He may actually have those 6’ doors.

Re: Need help with Canadian Tank Cars
If you model BN, you are on the wrong list. That’s a decade in the future for this list.

Re: Grab Iron On SFRD 7918
I dunno, Bob - the attach points of the brackets on the upper grab are in line, but it appears the "hat" section of the left bracket has been bent upwards.

Tim,
I’m not sure there was minikit for these cars, but Sunshine did produce a full resin kit for this series of cars. You could probably use the 5/5 square corner Dreadnaught ends RCW and Sunshine

Looks to me like this is the way the grab iron was attached rather than damaged.

Re: IC 161722 Chcago, 1940's
Why do you think Proto 2000 did not do an IC paint scheme on their model? These cars look
awfully close to the P2K 50 foot double door car.

Re: IC 161722 Chcago, 1940's
These cars had the Square 5/5 Dreadnaught Ends. Brad Hamner did a presentation on kitbashing this car on Hindsight 20/20 Zoom RPM a few years back. The doors were also slightly different.

According to the car diagram in the IC 1954 freight car diagram book the cars were built by GATC in East Chicago IN in 1937 so the photo could be a delivery photo. 161501 - 161700 had auto
