Bill,
 When was this car first produced, and where would one get decals for it?

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
