Another BLI PENNSY freight car

The March issue of Keystone Modeler has a BLI announcement of a yet another N scale PRR car, the K7A stock car. The car in the photo looks excellent, although I'm not sure of the scale of the model pictured. SPF's rejoice! Good news for the rest of us, too, as these cars roamed far and wide.

There is also a reference to sound... while I am a fan of locomotive (and other) sound effects, the idea of a "moo car" seems rather hokey to me. Does anyone have any more information about this, there is nothing on the BLI website.

Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Oh lord, I was afraid of that :facepalm:
And presumably, one cannot buy it without the moo's, or did the ad say?

LOL I think this is the third announcement of this K...7a on TRW.
By the time you see it in TKM, it's already old news.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

   HO also has Chicken and Pig sounds.
   the Giraffes still wouldn't cooperate it seems...?
   there are "Soundless" versions in HO,so that
   should carry over to N eventually.

I must have been asleep at the, ummm, throttle, so I missed the previous announcements ... can you point me to them? Search doesn't turn up anything for me... :?
And actually Josh, the Keystone Modeler is an awesome mag,  and very useful even for us non-SPF's... I do get it digitally though..

Otto, I LOVE TKM.
I'm sayng that from a product announcement point of view, a quarterly publication is likely out of date. In this case, that K7 was announced more than three months ago. But, it still does its job letting people know. I only brought it all up in jest because there was at least one thread here that was trolling us. The title was something like:
BLI FINALLY RELEASES A K...........7.
And of course I can't find it in my searches.  :facepalm:
