Looking for the previous Athearn release of NORX Coal Gons: "
ATHEARN NORX 50’ THRALL HIGH-SIDE COAL GONDOLA ITEM #94463 HO SCALE 5 PACK
" Need not be a 5 pack but do prefer unique numbers
Did you look on ebay, might have a good chance finding those.
I’ve been casually searching for another 5-pack of the NORX Hi side gons with yellow ends for years. AFAIK, Athearn only ran them once. When these old-stock 5-packs show up on Ebay, they tend to be priced at nutty high prices. The old issue 5-packs of other road names of the Athearn Thrall hi side gons are priced at around $148 - $180. The street price for them when they came out was around $70-$75 although they are now sold in 3-packs in the $65 - $85 range.
Shame as Athearn has re-ran the hi-side gons in most of the other road names but for some reason have ignored NORX.
