What methods do you use to add weight to an empty flatcar?
I live in CA so I have to order if it's to be real lead.

I did a search on Auto Zone and found nothing except clip on weights. What are exact words to search for and do you have names for other supply houses.

Floquil keeping qualities (was [RealSTMFC] Oxide red)
I have a old 2 oz bottle of Floquil (BCR I think) that I was still using. Have not checked it recently as it's away from me (SIP). I really wish they could make this formula again!:-)

Are these cars being loaded with sawdust?
I was there in the late 50s so my memory isn't totally kaput! Was it ever shipped in RR cars?

I lived for a while in Eugene, OR and seem to remember that saw dust was used in furnaces there. Can't remember the time frame however.

Athearn Type-B (was SLRX 4216)
I got some when they first came out, without wheel sets. They say the new ones are all nickel silver which might add to the prices but for me it's a waste as I use .088 IM wheelsets.

I looked up the Athearn B-1. They want $23 for 2 pair, this seems really high!

Never hear that one (doesn't mean it's not true) but I started using it in early 1960. It was made by Eastman Kodak and I think called 510 (or E510). At that time it was understood it was designed for

The size of the rivets on the tank are interesting. If a model was made I'm sure someone would complain about the size. Trucks are interesting also.

New '37 AAR box cars with Deco and NSC-2 ends
No response? I'm assuming that was because the car is the same and the only difference is paint and lettering! I had to wait the 5 years to get this paint/lettering scheme? Also is this what Francis A

My dealer says his shipment should arrive next week. Then he has to ship to me. I will post a shot of my C&O if nobody has posted before.

Grab Irons Extensions
I'm curious what all the doors do. I can't figure out how the extra ones make the opening wider?
