Hmm... I know there were two different FW&D cars there, and I was going by 
the earlier post and mistyped.   The best thing is to call a hobby shop 
(Caboose, Des Plaines or such) and see  what they have.  I saw two 
different versions.  I didn't take note of which two as I wasn't interested 
in the specific cars.  My interest is either a bit earlier or a bit further 
west.  But there are FW&D cars out now.   There is also a Shadowlined car 
out, for a Souther road, which one, I don't recall, as again, it was one 
I'm not interested in.  I noted the shadowlined image was nice, but that 
was all I really looked at.
