85 ft hi cubes are something I've wanted to see in O gauge for a long time. Probably up Atlas or MTH's alley. It's been said nobody wants to do them in 3 rail because much like 21" streamline coaches, they are too large for your typical 3 rail layout. You would need at least O72 curves or O96 curves for them to look decent.
Will MTH or Lionel ever make an 85ft boxcar? I've only seen one, but that was in 2 Rail, it was a kit.
