Interested in “as delivered” scheme, or early update. I model 1950.

Any possibility of undecorated kits included in the run? We kit builders are dying for some ribsides to build!!
Roger Ball
Looking forward to the MILWAUKEE ROAD – 3-1963 REPAINT

Any mention of a kit version…..

Beautiful, just beautiful, and such a unique prototype. Would you consider to make a version with a repaint date in the 1948-1953 range? Many transition state modelers like me should be interested in it. The box cars in my freight trains are 60-70% home road (Santa Fe), but for the remaining 30-40%, I strive for some variety in design.
Thanks

Ohhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhh. They look real nice. I feel the palms of my hands itching (a basic response to something that I like!) Note-train related response!

I am very interested in these beautiful and very unique boxcars. They will look great running along with all the other great Milwaukee Road freight cars you have produced.
