QUOTE: Originally posted by uspscsx Ohh.. Dumb me. I though we were talkin' about the hoppers. I've got both numbers of the old Difco Dump Car kits. I used to have almost every piece of CSX MOW equipment avalible. Then I sold all the "fantasy" items on eBay and made a fortune. About $80 total(seperate auctions, different weeks)for 2 MOW box cars and 2 MOW flat cars. And 1 of each had broken stirrups! uspscsx
QUOTE: Originally posted by uspscsx I am looking for the Walthers Gold Line 3-pack of CSX ballast hoppers. But that is not what this thread is about. I heard about Walthers release of these, and before I could get a set, they disappeared. Now they're nowhere. Not even on eBay. Luckily, I have the set they released long ago. But those have disappeared as well. I must ask, why is it that items like this tend to disappear quicker than say a set of BN ballast hoppers? It seems strange, because the CSX's are the only one's that are not in stock at Walthers. I stand corrected, they were, as I just checked, and it seems MILW, CN, CP, and a few others are now gone. But for sure, the CSX's were the first to go. Hopefully the CSX Difco Dump Cars won't go this quickly. uspscsx

You might want to try that next time. The CSX Difcos aren't in yet so you still could reserve them. And according to the Walthers website, the CSX Ballast cars have an expected arrival date of "Unknown". So however unlikley it is, they may end up back in stock sometime.
