While we're on the topic of PRS kits... Sherman, hit the WAY BACK button for
me...
A number of years back... Sep 4, 2003 to be exact... I posted about two,
specific PRS kits that I was looking for, yet NOBODY seemed to have any
knowledge of. There were FOUR 40' Double Door cars released in the SEABOARD
scheme... two of which I had located and bought - kits # B354.3 (road # 223315)
and B354.4 (road # 23318). The other two, which were (obviously) the first two
ever done (deduced from the kit numbering methodology - 3 and 4 generally comes
after 1 and 2) - kits # B354.1 and B354.2 were, it seemed, nowhere to be found
on the planet. I found out a year or so later that the road number for these
two kits were (supposedly) 23307 (for kit B354.1) and 23312 (for kit # B354.2).
I have long since forgotten where or from whom I got that info, but the road
numbering seems to fall inline with the numbering of the second two, so I
assume it is right.
Here are some photos of the two kits I WAS able to find :

Now... just a hair less than 2 weeks shy of 9 YEARS later... I am STILL trying
to determine the validity of this information AND to locate one of each of
these kits (B354.1 and B354.2).
Anyone know where I can find these kits?
