Bob, Right, I saw the ends and roof in Chattanooga and ordered the NP composite car. Are you also doing the GN composite car? Years ago, Earl Tuson did the GN composite car, having cast the sides and ends and used Pacific Rail Shops roofs. He sold all of the kits he had. I have two in my stash, just haven't gotten to them yet.

THE SUPPLY CAR is now offering cast W corner 4/5 ends with proper details in S for $5.95 per pair plus S/H. We showed the parts at the recent NASG Convention in CHATTANOOGA. The ends and the roof we also showed with a prototype roof are for our GN 1937 boxcar kit that is due out by the end of the year.

That appears to be 4/5 Dreadnaught end, also available in S on the 10' IH 40 ft AAR boxcar models. The American Models car and the 50 ft PRS cars have Improved Dreadnaught Ends (IDE). Pieter E.

I would assume, at this point, that more could be made. As you can see the parts are sharply detailed and the car end has the uncoupler bar bracket, the brake bell crank, poling pockets and the connection for the airline all attached. The bolster coupler pocket piece was designed for the Kadee #5 coupler. I cut these and used them individually where needed. Bob Werre PhotoTraxx
