easing back into it.
Are these still available? There not as detailed as I'd like but there isn't much option for Rock Island hwt cars. I know athearn just released some 60' round top harriman cars but in my minds eye they. Just don't look right with the longer walthers pullmans I already have, although I will get a baggage car the add to my work train. I know most of the IHC cars need weight added to improve running quality, is there an article on detailing these anywhere?

Con-Cor is now making some nicely detailed and lit heavyweights.

I have two Rivarossi passenger cars I believe the IHC cars are the same? They pop up from time to time on Ebay. However some of the older releases have the deep 'pizza-cutter' flanges on the wheels so you may have to change them out or just live with them (and run code 100 track)
