RMT depressed flatcars
Posted by Seayakbill on Wednesday, January 18, 2012 7:31 PM

My wife and daughters purchased a few of the RMT depressed flats with loads for me for Christmas. A couple of the Milwaukee / Bethlehem Steel making the rounds on the S&Y RR.  These flats are pretty nice and fit right in with traditional & Postwar rolling stock. The 50% off sale is still going on for these guys.

My wife purchased these two for me for Christmas.  She bought them at a good price but not as good as the current deal.  I am tempted to buy more.

Yep at $25 per car a pretty good deal ( 50% off sale ), at $50 per car, no can do.

Bill and Joe,

Just ordered a CSX Bang and Cabosse over the weekend at the 50% off and free shipping deal. Do they make these depressed cars without a load?

Tks,

Thanks guys I see that now. It would be nice if they sold cars with no loads because I bet, I am not the only person who likes to make his own loads. They could drop the asking price too if there was no load.

 Tks,

Laugh   Smile, Wink & Grin  Tongue Tied  Huh? 

John,

If you will buy them I will sell them. My suggestion is that they sell un-painted engines why not un-loaded cars? Could be a good market move for them.
