I built one of these kits and the quality of the detailing is excellent. There is also a bulkhead conversion kit; not sure if that was a separate item or came with the original kit.
According to a V&T Shops instruction sheet, here is the proto info on these flats. Class F-10-7 53' 6" built in 1949 and 1950 original series #140500-142549 (2050 cars) as some cars were converted to bulkheads, they were renumbered. In 1955, the F-10-7 class was renumbered to #560824-562854. (not all were renumbered) See http://www.railgoat.railfan.net/spcars/byclass/flat/f070-07.htm for more info. See http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/sp/sp506437akg.jpg (photo taken 1986, Newark NJ) So, if you model 1949 into the 1980's, let Keith know if you want this kit re-released.
