Hello Tom The 53' SP flat car plus the 40' model are now available through the BASS club in San Francisco. It is the O and S scale show car for this year. The cost of the cars is $40 plus 10 for trucks and couplers. There is also a bulkhead kit available for the cars. The cars can be bought with either scale or high rail wheelsets.

After the show purchases are over, the car will be available through me at Howard' S Trains at [email protected]. There will also be advertising in the next S Gaugian and other sources. let me know if you need more assistance with information.
