Peter, I was thinking about that too. I have a couple of shots of the
Soo Line Boxcar at the Illinois State Museum. If all that is required
would be different sides, it's a shoe-in for some of my cash! The only
question that comes to mind, the stock car that Wisconsin Central made
was a 36', while I thought the SOO's Fowler BC's were 40'--I'll have to
check my photos. I suppose it's possible both lengths were made.

Hi Bill, Al;
Lovely looking model.
Interestingly, the car appears to be based on the same design as the
classic SOO LINE "sawtooth" Fowler boxcar. With solid sides and a new
door, I suspect you would be there.
Later era modelers might want a Murphy XLa roof, like the SHS USRA
cars, but that's an easy change.

I saw test pieces for the stock car at CJSS. It is very nice.
I designed the stirrup steps for it, and have them for sale
separately now. Contact me directly if you have interest in buying
the stirrup steps only.
Thank You,
Bill Lane
