Just stumbled upon these.  Such a simple idea!  Will look forward to hearing more details in the weeks to come!

Roomettes will launch at the Amherst Railroad Hobby Show at the end of January. Our website will be online in February. Stay tuned!

Seem to be HO size, I wonder if they will be doing N scale as well. The facebook page just points towards the end of the month pretty much at Amherst.

Other than that, they look like a great idea.

Very cool. :D

It would be very simple to "roll your own" if you have access to a color printer.

Very cool. At first I thought you were referring to passenger car roomettes.

Here is my version  :D:

They should be able to do these in any scale that will fit on a standard sheet of paper.

What kind of sleeper is that? With extra wide windows? Can you show the whole car?

Not sure what he is modeling, but it' looks like a Lima PRR P70 coach that has been kitbashed.

With a flatbed scanner and decent laser printer one could scan the HO versions and reduce to N scale. A cool idea in any size. And so simple.
