Hi Dave, Would either of these style cars lasted until the merger, and maybe beyond? Thanks! From: Dave Lotz <Dave_Lotz@bellsouth.net> To: CBQ@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, August 4, 2013 8:11 AM Subject: [CBQ] Market Survey - CB&Q 70-ton 2-bay sand hoppers [2 Attachments] Hi All,
I’m conducting a survey to
determine the potential demand for a special run of CB&Q Havelock-built,
HC-1, ACF-design 70-ton, 2-bay covered hopper kits that I am preparing to
produce. There will be two
versions of custom-decorated Bowser kits in at least two road numbers and
possibly more.
The first version will be
from the 1943 order in the 180200-180249 number series.
The kits will be equipped with Kadee® National Type B trucks, painted
with a mineral red body and roof; white 1943 lettering with the small, body
painted, white only Burlington Route herald and large Everywhere West
script. This version will retail
for $24.95 each plus shipping.
The second version will be
from the 1946 order in the 180400-180499 number series.
The kits will be equipped with Bowser’s trucks with metal wheelsets,
painted with a mineral red body and roof; white 1946 lettering with the small,
body painted, white only Burlington Route herald and large Everywhere West script. This version will retail for $18.95
each plus shipping.
This will be a very limited
run based upon the results of this survey. Each value-added kit will contain extra Bowser weights to
bring these hoppers closer to the NMRA recommended weight and Kadee® No. 158
Whisker® couplers.
If you are interested in
obtaining any of these kits, please email me directly with the number of road
numbers you would be willing to purchase of each version. I will announce the results of the
survey next Friday night (August 9).
Thank you for your interest
and participation in this survey.
