Hi Bob --

Amity Star had pre-painted kits of the car.   I have one that I still intend to 
build, but using plastic shapes for the metal trusses.    The paintwork is a 
bit crude – the kit looks like something from the 1950s, though I know it is 
from the 1980s.    We have come a long way in our quest for realistic models....

I learned that Wabash shipped Studebakers in outside braced wood boxcars, and 
there is a forty-foot specimen on display in nearby Montrose, so a model of 
that is a virtual "must have" for the house/team track at Mooar Yard. I would 
like to build one from a wood kit (are those still available anywhere - I 
wonder if I have one stashed away somewhere?), if possible.
