I'd take one if only for display. One of those "babies" would overwhelm my 12 ft. x 12 ft. layout. But thanks to your posting, guess now I may start a "petition drive" for my favorites. Those low-slung phosphate hoppers, wood rack, and wood chip cars. Those cars moved in fleets, not single cars. Plastic kits or r-t-r, I'd buy a lot of them. And something else - both Walthers and Bachmann could sell more cars/engines if they offered more road numbers.
dave i couldnt agree more with you it seems to me that companys like bachmann athearn and walthers could make more stuff if your like me im from south and you dont see much passenger stuff along the lines of gm&o l&n southern and so on as you do other passenger lines and as for the hogshead car im really trying to get walthers to produc these cars i know they would be a good seller for them i mean they do the 86' boxcars i hope im getting the message out to people into contacting walthers about making these cars
