Does anybody know when this kit was available or if they still manufacture this kit? It's a Red Ball Monsanto Nitric Acid Tank Car. It's a Kit. wood,metal, paper. I found it in a roundhouse box but hand written on the box. Nice looking kit. Every things in the picture except for a piece of wire that would be used for the hand rail. thanks in advance sludge
They're still around. And from what I can infer, they seem to be collectible items in some instances. Check out here http://www.mrrwarehouse.com/MRW-Made/Red_Ball_1.htm. The nitric acid tanker kit is mentioned a little more than halfway down the page, the link next to it refers to a page of limited edition products, and your tanker is in it.
