I have 1 Roundhouse 26' High Side Ore Car, I am having trouble finding more... I am also residing in Australia so I will have to take exchange rate into account. with postage...

Does any one know how I could track a few of these down. Decorated/Undecorated/Assenbled/Unassembled.

The roundhouse was the standard up until Walthers came out with theirs which I have purchased on E Bay for $42.00 US/ dozen new. I believe the Roundhouse version is a generic model with no prototype but could be wrong on that. Since you only have one it may be easier to sell it and get something more prototypical. Walthers made the cars in at least two each of four car sets and twelve car sets with different numbers.

I guess that you are talking about the really little hoppers: If so, I've got a swag of them for sale... in Adelaide!

Might be easiest to email me.
