Thanks, Bill. That’s exactly the one I was looking for. Unfortunately, having the right number didn’t help locate one at the moment. Maybe one will turn up eventually.

Subject: Re: [CBQ] Walthers Express Box Car (Troop Kitchen Car Conversion) Undecorated
You want Walthers item #932-4199 for the undecorated version.
Before Walthers re-did their web site 2-3 years ago, one of the advantages of being one of their Yardmaster members is that you could find anything that Walthers had carried since the 1980s even if it had been long discontinued or sold out. This was really
helpful in looking for old parts or old kits. Now once an item is sold out/discontinued, it seems to disappear from their inventory system in a few months.
If you are willing to pay more, there has been someone periodically selling the past few years the Precision Scale brass versions for as low as $120-$130 on eBay with the replacement A3 Ride Control trucks.

I’ve been searching for Walthers Gold Line express box car (troop kitchen car conversion) 932-4182 or the undecorated troop kitchen car conversion that’s identical to 932-4182 without success. Part of the problem is that I don’t know the
Walthers number for the undecorated version. If anyone has the undecorated number, please send it to me so I can search by the number. Also, if anyone has either version for sale, contact me off list.
