Another factor that is coming to play is I know full well, that the manufacturors are charging as high of prices a they can get away with and have people still pay it. I recently did my own study and determined that I could manufacture my own caboose kit similar in substantial quality to one of the latest offerings by Walthers, and sell it for $12-$15.00 Freight cars would be about $5-$7 And this is with a rather generous, (I would feel guilty about it) profit margin. While the Dollar Car is no longer a certainty, if one were wanting to scratch build, $3.00 cars are still feasable. James.
