Actually, a very nice plastic TT boxcar kit was introduced several years 
ago by Gold Coast Models in Or.  The line has now been sold to a German 
company, but the undec kit is still available.   Go to 
http://www.lok-n-roll.de   and scroll down.

Decals might be cobbled together from some of the older Walthers sets 
which were often in the wrong size.

Take care
