Ritchie, is this a Jan 2010 release?

If so, what else is on the menu?

Nice paint job, but there is no prototype for that body style... ::)

MTL made it so it has to be prototypical . ;) Just how unprototypical is it ?

I am getting it cus I like it , and to celebrate the 7800 or so pounds of concrete I had to lug home , mix , and pour this last summer .

The NH car is prototypical for the 1937 AAR model by InterMountain.

Sounds as if they've finally re-released the infamous pealing-door-paint C&O boxcar as a single.

The cement bag load will be nice to have when it gets released as a detail part.

I forget exactly what, but it is listed in the MR review of the MT USRA boxcar that the side/roof/end combo used was never made.

It is a nice car though.

More like it's New York Central and subsidiaries counterpart, which was a USRA-based design. Does this car have corrigated ends? None of their other releases did, to my knowledge.
