John, The website really looks great. I love the photos. I really love the photo of the large yard with so many of these cars in it. I think your page where you who all the different slogans that were used on some of the cars is a real plus too. If I was a millionaire, I might try to pay someone to assemble one car with each slogan, but that is not going to happen. Keep promoting. - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 4/16/2011 9:52:47 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Earl, (and all)
My web page actually did say the model was coming in both HO AND S... up until the day Jim King told me the kit was cancelled. But I have just now finished updating the page with accurate text AND a few more photos that have recently found their way into my posession. I meant to RE-update the page yesterday but forgot. Sorry for any confusion.

But I would have immediately lost interest because the top line says this is an upcoming HO project ! The information about this being offered as an S scale project, immediately following saying the project has been put on the shelf for lack of interest, is where the information is about Jim King taking on the project. But how many S scalers would get to that set of paragraphs several pages deep after seeing the headline that this is an upcoming HO scale project. At least update the website if you are serious about doing this in S scale. Your boasting about having promoted this project, along with your saying over and over that each email will be your last effort to promote, is a real turnoff. The S Scale model builders on this Yahoo site have rallied behind you and your project. You should be both proud and happy. But get serious about the promotion side. - Earl Henry In a message dated 4/16/2011 2:01:59 P.M.

After some digging, I found one in the April 1996 issue of Bill Wade's S/Sn3 Modeling Guide, page 18. Personally I'd rather go after the PRR K9a stock cars converted from their fleet of 50' round roof box cars, in my home town of Fort Wayne I might add! But that is a "hacking and whacking" project for some other day. The 50' round roof is sleeping quietly in a box somewhere waiting for that day...
