Jim:

Claus is not on Railwire.  The decals are close to the Deluxe (imitation gold) color, not gold leaf; and modified block letters, not Futura.  I believe that would qualify as post 1949, but I think it also covers earlier periods such as 1930s.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

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."

Hi Josh:

I got your order, after which there are only about 6 RPOs left.

Doug.

Doug,

My order for an additional B60 and some decals went through without a hitch, so I guess I'm among the lucky ones. :)

I don't know for sure if these ever carried horses, but I do know there was a specific class for horses.
I'm also a big fan of those theater cars.

All in due time.  ;)  :D

Mine is shipping. OK, so maybe not prototypical for a horse car, but why the race track names in decal sets?

The website indicates the B60's are out of stock.  I guess I should have placed my order yesterday!  Bummer! :(

We burned through our entire inventory of B60b baggage cars in a little over 24 hours.  Wow!

We currently still have 5 BM70k RPO kits in stock and we have the PRR headend car decals. 

Later, we may have a few more B60b kits that we can sell without trucks.  Through unfortunate circumstances beyond our control, the PRR 2D-P5 trucks, previously available through American Limited, are not currently available.  We hope this may change in the future, but for now they remain unavailable.

Thanks for everyone's interest and orders.  All orders were shipped yesterday or today via Priority Mail so watch your mailboxes.

To Claus and Doug,
It must be a very frustrating event when you run out of stock as well as running out of trucks.
But then again congratulations are in order and I look forward to the two BM70k when they finally make it to Australia.
Regards
Al

Wow, although I don't know how many were actually sold, that was impressive.  :o  Now, how about an R50b?
