Accurail has a real nice N&W stock car, except it has a peaked roof instead of radial, and the side bracing goes the wrong way . . .

  Peter, Bill and to anyone else it may concern.  Have you guys tried Accurail?  Of course it might help if they have a model that fits the N&W prototype.  I do know they are friendly towards model railroad clubs in custom painting certain schemes for the cars they produce.  The quantity was fairly low at the time.  I think we had to order at least 150.  The items proved so popular we ordered several more batches and ended up ordering about 500.  

  I am not sure what they would want with modeling a specific prototype.  Just a thought.

    Peter -

    I can't use 300 either, but I would certainly be interested in several cars
    - assuming they all have different numbers.  If they are Intermountain,
    would they be RTR or kits.  I'd prefer the RTR and would take a couple
    dozen.

    Further to the comments concerning models, I have tried to get the N&WHS
    interested in a run of Tichy USRA HO hoppers in Vgn;  the people at
    Intermountain were happy to do a run but the minimum was 300, too many for
    me as an individual but I was prepared to finance the deal at the time and
    be repaid from sales.  The only response I received was one rather officious
    e-mail.
