BLI Zephyrs

Has anybody pre-ordered the Zephyr cars from BLI? Have you heard anything about the quality and availability? How many cars did you order and what railroad? I'm thinking about ordering all 13 WP cars.

I pre-ordered the complete WP train after receiving an email back from BLI describing the detail of the product. BLI has some great products, but also has some problems getting them to market. I believe they will great for the money and worth the price.

I ordered my train from Caboose Hobbies, but they are not the lowest in price for BLI. I visit Caboose Hobbies often when I am in Denver and give them some of my used brass business and special order items.
