The eurethane gives it away, pal... you can't be BILL LANE! <G> John Degnan [email protected] [email protected] ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Lane To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2012 01:37 PM Subject: {S-Scale List} Lanes Trains is entering the freight car market [2 Attachments] Lanes Trains in cooperation with S Scale Loco & Supply is very happy to announce a new urethane freight car in S Scale. It is the PRR F33 well hole flat car. I have been working with Fred Rouse throughout the year to get the open for business sign hung up. Without his knowledge I investigated making a car that Fred would benefit from by supplying the trucks. It turned out to be possible to bring a new car to the market and help a brother S Scaler at the same time. The F33 project was born. This will be a little different that previous projects on many ways. It will be **ala carte** with just the body being sold. You would get the trucks directly from SSLS. If there is sufficient body sales I will look at making a brass detail parts tree in Solidworks which will include the difficult to make side stirrup steps, draft gear and a few other details. Otherwise it really is a very simple car. My friend John is already on tap to make decals. Smaller details wire grab irons etc will not be furnished since you likely already have them. No prices for the what the total package cost of the car are known yet but the target is to close to or below other recent S Scale urethane cars and of course will delivered in the timely manner you have come to expect with other Lanes Trains projects. If this project is successful that are already other cars in queue to be made. No need to send money or emails yet - just stay tuned. We are just getting started. Thank You, Bill Lane
