Wow, good one. Man, what I would give to live in a spot like that. If only the grunge movement had never happen... I could afford a place off Puget Sound right now. It's unfortunate that there's so few merchant ship models available. Dave D.

The print of Bernie's container block is in the Jul-Aug 2001 issue of N Scale, I believe. I believe Hyundai's Korean shipyard just launched a 9600 TEU vessel which can hold 4800 40ft boxes, enough to fill up 480 5-car well-car sets. WOW eNjoy Don B [ 21 June 2001: Message edited by: dbn160 ]
