I've been casually searching for another 5-pack of the NORX Hi side gons with yellow ends for years.  AFAIK, Athearn only ran them once.  When these old-stock 5-packs show up on Ebay, they tend to be priced at nutty high prices.  The old issue 5-packs of other road names of the Athearn Thrall hi side gons are priced at around $148 - $180.  The street price for them when they came out was around $70-$75 although they are now sold in 3-packs in the $65 - $85 range.

Shame as Athearn has re-ran the hi-side gons in most of the other road names but for some reason have ignored NORX.
