Hopefully, they're making the masters for the stock cars too that
were built from these cars. Wishful thinking on my part. :(

Thanks, Bill. I'll work on my F&C "wish list" for
the next
time I see Steve at Naperville or Springfield. Do
you know
if he did upgraded castings for the USRA double
sheathed
rebuilds?

wood and steel side doors. To the best of my
knowledge, the kits are
among several not currently in production as Steve
is re-doing patterns.
I built one of the early kits and ended up not
using the ends that came
with the kit but ends from some of his other kits
with better
representations of the correct ends, so I think
waiting for upgraded
casting will be worth it.
