Berlin Mills boxcars in N or HO

I'm looking for one of the Berlin Mills cars in either HO or N.  I was thinking Fox Valley made these but I haven't found any evidence that they did.

Model Die Casting/Roundhouse made an N scale Berlin Mills box car kit years ago. That's the only one I know about.


Hmm... there's one on
eBay for $19.99. Ha ha
ha ha ha ha...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Yeah, odd given how common this car is in real life.

I did a Google search, and found two references to a Micro-Trains Berlin Mills 50' box car. One was on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-x-Micro-Trains-N-Scale-Berlin-Mills-50-Boxcars-/141736028487/?_ul=BO

The other was on a website that my browser said was not secure, so I shouldn't open it. So I didn't.


Hmm...  Kiz had some
bananas on the table,
and he said I shouldn't
eat them, so I did...

Yeah I don't recall FV ever releasing that scheme.  Those MT cars look custom painted to me.

I've got one of the old MDC ones in my junk box.  It's only the shell but it's in good condition.  Chip in for postage and its yours.

Yes.  The MT cars used these decals.

MDC N scale was the only version of the BMS car.

Athearn did this a few years back, maybe that's what your thinking of?
