As I understand it, the Wabash Valley shells were a makeover of the original 
shells; the characteristic spotting feature is the way the entire ends were 
angled slightly to match the roof overhang, just like the Enhorning ones did.  
The plastic used was likely an improved version of a styrene, though Enhorning 
supposedly also tried to mold acetate shells as well as styrene of the day.  
Enhorning shells had a bad habit of warping a hump in the middle of them, which 
the WV shells supposedly remedied.  DJE

  So...

  Given S scale, I'm sure it's safe to assume that the Wabash Valley shells are 
now made of unobtainium, so forget a few of their shells for some 
correct-for-my-favorite F's?
