    Well, I see one popular online dealer has listed these. With a discount, the expected price is $48-50 bucks. Also, something I thought was interesting, was that they come with three pairs of containers, BNSF 53ft of course. Any thoughts on this, which is a pretty new thing in intermodal releases, i mean, containers with the cars.

    Oh, my first impression that for that price, comparing to other, similar cars, that it seems to me a pretty good deal. But, do you like the idea of all the same roadname containers? A long shot, maybe they could release some in JB Hunt? I highly, highly doubt it. Wishful thinking. I'm sure the cars themselves will be quite nice, knowing Kato.

    I will pick one up for variety. I will repaint the boxes, as they are past my era (1998). Actually the car is a bit past my era as well.... I just won;t weather it much.

    DI stuff is metal, and bulletproof. I'll stick with what I know.
