Micro-Trains container supports for 89 ft flatcars

Does anyone have a part number for these, especially the 40 foot version?  I looked at the MT parts page, and didn't find anything. 

If no one does, I'll email MT, but there might be others interested in them as well.

I want them for a couple non-MT flats, and could build my own, but buying them ready-made I know they'll fit.  Besides, I have a bunch of dual-purpose MT flats, mostly bought as TOFC cars, and no way to put containers on them.

Just give MTL a call, they will sell them to you.  They have a lot of parts that aren't (yet) officially sold in retail packaging either because the demand doesn't warrant it or they are too new.  But they will sell them to you as an individual if you ask.

Thank you.  I'll try that, they were real good about my order for 500 pairs of 1025 boxes and lids a few years back!  Fortunately, I don't need 500 container supports.  A half dozen will do, and they can probably put them in an envelope and mail them.
