Ken,
I don't mind spending stupid amounts for my brass steamers but for passenger cars I just can't see it. Same with freight cars. They have to be very special cars to spend that kind of money.
I'll just have to settle for my "foobie" baggage and storage mail cars like the Athearn, AHM-Rivarossi, IHC and Walthers. I like the NJCB Pennsy BM-60 for my MS-3 and BMh cars. I have an AHM/Rivarossi dome car that's very close to the plans for the proposed Powhatan Arrow dome coach.
My only "true" N&W passenger cars are the KEY and Sunset Powhatan Arrow cars and the Roanoke Rails 10/6 sleepers. The rest of my fleet is just foobies unfortunately.

Hey Roger
This is another manufacturer, and at this point only a potential, but they are enthusiastic about a car, it will not be in the price range as Division Point. The MS-1 car offers several varieties such as regular service in red with the ampersand, regular service in red with “and” and regular service in blue, early excursion service, later excursion service and after studying photos MofW. It has a really super item as they were in service for so long, and in virtually every mainline train at some point.
I’ll tell me when I actually can, as it is confidential at the moment.
Best
Ken
