    Craig, cannot say anything but, SWEET!!!!!! Anybody want to buy some undec 89'er's? I was just getting started on shaving off the MT hitch details and making them into this style flatcar. I am looking forward to these and the spine cars, way to go!

    YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Will you have a test model on display at the World's Greatest Hobby show in the LBC this weekend?

    I heard the MSRP will be $26.95 for the N scale cars (the HO cars cost more!) - this is an even better price than the hard-to-find MTL 89' TOFC cars! And those aren't even as detailed!

    Craig: Not sure whether to hug you...or smack the living hell out of you! While I'm trying to adhere to a budget, these are going to place all kinds of temptation on me!! Thankfully I have a while to save for a fleet.

    Excellent choice and I'm certain they'll look great! Thanks!

    Why didn't you make this announcement before I got the MTL 4 car set? At least I've got time to save up after I get your coal gons from Chuck.

    :) Indeed, a Welcome addition to the N scale Intermodal scene. We need VARIETY like this. Not to take the 'place of' the M-T car but to add Variety to our fleet. Hopefully this will be the year when Atlas announces it's 89 footer as well.

    Thanks BLMA, I am confidant that your risk will come with suitable rewards.
