Hello Joe - (Ogden - IMW owner)
Yes, at this time now you do -- as a fairly new product release.
But not when this thread was originally started some time ago back in 2016.
Your O Scale Philly Market-Frankford BUDD built "Almond Joy" EL car is fantastic - beautiful and extensively fully detailed. Here are some photos taken of it by another excellent modeler, Steve Olsen, at one of our NYCMTA Transit Modeling Shows back in 2018 -- see on EPTC Member Dave Gallagher's O Scale Module-sections of the PTC Bridge-Pratt Trolley & EL Terminal.
In PHOTOS BELOW - Your car is seen in 2018 on Dave's still long ongoing unfinished and underway EL Structure model construction of the Philly Frankford EL over Frankford Avenue as it was originally built. - Regards - Joe F
That scene brings back fond memories. Growing up in NE Philly, the Market/Frankford El or the EL was our way downtown. If I recall, there was a coffee shop across the trolley tracks. In the first photo, it would be to the right. Someone please correct me if I have my bearings wrong.
