Ed and All, While I agree with you that there are a very large number of various little hoppers in S. My guess is because you can't have just one. Manufactures love to sell mutiples and who can blame them. I have a unit grain train or two of Pacific Rail ACF Centerflow Hoppers and the unit coal porter hopper train(s) are not far behind when the new paint schemes arrive. Danny Click Troup, TX

To: s-sc...@yahoogroups .com Date: Thursday, January 1, 2009, 9:50 PM Hello, I just clicked on the F&C list and brought everything they offer in S up. I already have two Despatch Shops covered hoppers, one NYC gon, and an ERIE Dunmore covered hopper. Two years ago I completed the assembly of the Despatch covered hoppers, had minor difficulties with the first one, more frustration with squaring up the second kit. No complaints though, I finally got it together. Apparently, one can still obtain the F&C S kits.

It's getting to be quite a list. I almost wonder if maybe HO is in jeopardy of losing its title of the most of everything! Happy New Year!
