Re: [CBQ] C&S Hoppers

Hi All

After reading all the other emails about the time frame people are modeling I believe quite a few of us model the 60s and early 70s.  I believe the main problem is that these cars are $40 AAR 70 ton triple hoppers.  This car has been done pretty well in the past which I suspect many of us have a sizable fleet of.  Now these are the nicest version ever done of this model of car but it is going to make the rest of our fleets look bad.  If you only had a couple I could see spending that kind of money but I know I own roughly 60 Accurail or Stewart cars so at $40 each it isn’t worth it when I could pick up another of those at a train show for $10 and renumber or repaint it.  I am guessing in my personal opinion this model is going to be a loss for everyone involved and will always have lack luster sales.  My thoughts might be wrong to some but here I am.
