Operating Doors On BLI Express Reefers

Just in case anyone failed to notice, as I did at first, the "not"
in the recent posts reporting that "the list of features does not
inluding operating doors" on the BLI Express Reefers, here is the
real list of features:

-Authentically detailed units, ready-to-roll out of the box.
-Factory painted / Factory applied hand grabs
-Metal Kadee® knuckle couplers

I'm not sure why including these desireable features triggered the
tinplate comments.....

Nostalgia. The desire to smell ozone, and hear the loud BZZZZZzztt
when the little man rockets out of the car with the milk cans...

Charlie,
I made the original comment. The site doesn't say anything about
"Operating Doors" in the details of this car. Where it does say the car has
"Operating Doors" is in the colorful catalog* BLI mailed out. This was
confirmed when I called but as the new date on this car is June not sure
where the progress on the mold work is!

* By the way I really liked the catalog, but it's about as Nostalgic as I
want to get!

Jon-
Thanks, I talked to the boss and he says they shouldn't, so the catalog is
wrong. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
The factory drawings that I use for generating the artwork do not show the
doors as separate parts.
