I love bulk purchases, congratsBulk purchase of 143 reefer cars. Athearn base that are custom Painted by a company called Show Me. These were part of the California Dreamin' series. Documentation says there were 18 different designs. I got 15 of them in this lot. BUT I can count seven others in one of the original magazine ads for them. Don't know what is up with that. I had been looking for the CalOra car for years, but actually forgot about this brand when the YesterYear company came out with the same design with better graphics and on a better quality car. Almost all the cars have at least one, and most often more, stirrups broken off. But I knew this before I purchased, and got them less than $2 a car. What I don't have is the ice hatch covers! I'll have to get a huge batch 3d printed.
