These look like really nice cars and I'll definitely be keeping them on my radar. Now I'm trying to figure out which reporting marks these cars carry in US scrap service. It seems that the most common is UNPX (Procor), e.g.:

and to a lesser extent HZGX (Herzog), e.g.:

Any others? Thx. -gfh

Gary, the Herzog cars are probably in scrap tie service, not general scrap service...

With these, 2012 may go down as my most expensive year in model train purchases. . . . sigh . . . but it's so fantastic to see these joingin the ranks of the BLMA, Exactrail, and other offerings.

These cars are fantastic. I may change my layout from Ontario to the west for these. I grew up watching unit trains of sulphur and coal roll by in these cars. I can't believe my good fortune to see these produced, in n-scale no less!
