Chief, Drew,
I’m just sittin here with my mouth watering, waiting to hear more about theses $7.50 I R cars. I believe it was Jim that said “30some bucks, no way!”. Its nice to see the site up. I’m not smart enough to figure out the unlock thing so…[%-)]… And btw I soo agree, the ACF Centerflows just scream “BIG TRAIN” and slap on a bright or current road name and I’ll look like I’m 12 again![:D]

Jim,
Im relying on you to keep us posted on where to buy the 10-15 buck rolling stock. I stumble across someone offering that price for 3-rail, and my only question is “how many you got?” [:D] wheres the dang “mouth watering” smiley at?
The original prices for the Industrial Rail freight cars was between $23.99 and $26.99 at the Rider’s Hobby Shop in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The only time the price came down was during the holiday sales. These cars sold out quickly. The line of small cars was big. Then IHC stopped production.
There are still more cars body styles to come for the Industrial Rail Line. Old Time Ore Car, the Hoppers, and the Caboose. The fine people at Atlas O could surprise us with a new car or a locomotive in matching proportions.
Reminder: In the MTH Rugged Rails Line there have been Norfolk Southern freight cars. The Rugged Rails cars are similar to the Industrial Rail freight cars. Do the search on the MTH-RailKing site.
Andrew.
