<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is my first post to the list, and I'm certain this question has been asked before, probably many times. However I have not seen an answer to it online, and as such I'm asking here, since I figure it's unlikely there's a group more knowlegable on the subject.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My question is, can anyone give me a list, or even just a few recomendations, of decently prototypically accurate HO scale models of late steam era N&W freight cars, preferably plastic kits, or RTR plastic, though craftsman kits are fine if there's no decent plastic alternative. I want to put togather a couple of N&W freight trains, one general freight, one a coal drag, and I need to know what reasonably priced options there are out there. I know almost nothing about what's available in the way of decently accurate models, asside from the bowser fishbelly 55 ton and the BLI H2a.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any and all information you can give me, be it information on specific models, or a link to somewhere I can find this information, will be greatly appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
