N Scale Lumber Carrier

I am looking for N scale lumber carriers like the post from 2015, showing the Hyster lumber carrier. The company that did make them appears to have discontinued their production. Does anyone have a current source for these or other mill yard or logging equipment?

Wow they have some nice stuff; I like the fact that they have models from different eras and are labelled as such.

I'm pretty sure the OP is referring to these.
I bought several from a Shapeways Vendor several years ago.

Actually, it was "OP" or Original Poster, meaning you.

As an update to the availability of the N Scale lumber carrier question, I contacted Shapeways who used to produce these models, they are no longer available. The CAD design was owned by a private shop owner who had them listed through Shapeways. Shapeways is in the midst of changing their production program to something named "Thangs", and if the private shop owner reconfigures their CAD design to be compatible with Thangs, the model will be available again through Shapeways. Their response was somewhat cryptic, so I may not have all the details correct, short story is the lumber carrier is not currently available.
I will continue the search for a N scale version and update the post if I find something.
