Yeah, both models would be great in N. When did the Thrall cars enter production?

Daniel,

Those cars pre-dated the SP/UP merger - probably 1994. If you recall, in the last couple of years of SP several sets of freight cars were delivered in the Sunset logo.

definitely email them - I've received actual thoughtful replies from them when I've contacted them before!

point out that the LBF 65' cars go for $20 bucks sometimes on Ebay....

I want them too!

I am drawing up decal artwork for some old, rusty ACL, SCL and SBD gons used for MOW service and it is surprising how noticable the old MTL gon's height and length problems are.

E-mail sent. I don't think Conrail had anything that looks like this, but I could use a few in other eastern roads.

You could beg for this Thrall 3267 to be done in N... but I'd read up on the issues with the HO car first before begging...

Well, Robbman, at least it's an accurate model of a slightly different gon!!!  :)

And what's 6" in height when MTL routinely puts 2 feet of air space underneath their cars.

btw, it sounds as if they are doing BOTH cars in HO and mistakenly put the roadname list with the wrong announcement. or something like that.
