Roy,
You might try contacting the folks at Trout Creek Engineering:
http://www.troutcreekeng.com/
The Tru-Scale track roadbed line is one of the four companies under their roof. There is an outside chance that they might have gotten some uncatalogued "Water and Fuel Car" kits when they took over the Tru-Scale line. Other "fallen flag" vendors in addition to Jay Cohen are Nixon Enterprises:
http://www.nixonenterprises.com
and the "yard sale" section at Model Railroad Warehouse:

Have you looked at Jay Cohen's online catalogue ? He sells a lot of older HO stuff.Here is a link www.jaystrains.com/index.html Joe G.

Need Help Finding a Tru-Scale " Water and Fuel Car"

Hello,
I have been trying to locate one of these cars for a while. It is part of their Mof W sets from the 60 as far as I know. This car was a water tank and a coal bin on a flat car with accessories strapped to its sides and I think used in conjunction with their blacksmith car. I have a scan of a page from their old catalog if needed. I would appreciate any info on where I might get an unbuilt or rtr kit.
Please if you need pic for ID drop me a line.
Thanks very much for the help.
Roy
