Who makes an HO scale 40' corrugated side 8.5" tall container. Athearn and Walthers both are high cube (9.5" tall) models. Con-Cor I think make a 40' 8.5' tall container but I think it's smooth side with external posts. Am I missing something?
The only corrugated ones I've found are Kibri, as per this link Walthers Cat. Any use? A-line do 8'6" high 40' but they sound like sheet & post boxes.

And yes, the A-Line 40-footers are 8.5' x-post boxes, as is the 45' one they do (got a couple in my "to-do" pile). The upcoming container from walthers will be all-corrugated (no logo panels), but will also be a 9.5' high-cube. Nice, but we still need some of those 8.5' boxes! My intermodal wish list: 45' all-corrugated high-cube container 40' all-corrugated 8.5' container That's just the start.
