Robert     Please send me the information you have on the roofs from GGD.
I think you proved people would buy these things, but you have to know where to get the items.
 
This is is the first I have herd about extra roofs from a supplier. Scott should step up to the plate and bring in more parts like this.
 
Car kits for O scale are available. USP mainly does HO and S scale care sides.
he will do O scale with a sure charge added to the HO car price. They run bout 55.00 per kit. No roof.
 
So this is the key We have to be able to get good roofs. This is why I am working on a good  Pullman style roof resin casting

So I seriously doubt it anything will come from AML. But me I am just moving on.

cant wait for dadada.

Bill,
Regarding the roofs: (and thanks for clearing that up. I looked up roves in the dictionary and there is such a word but it made no sense in relation to model trains.)

Golden Gate Depot just delivered the PRR P70far coaches with the arch roofs. I asked Scott Mann to have extra roofs made and he did. I took 22 of them to a 2 rail show in Strasburg, PA, this past Saturday and sold 16 of them at $15 each. My point is that no one balked at the price. When GGD did the heavyweight coaches years ago I sold over 200 extra roofs at shows over the course of a few years. I don't think your price of $20-25 per is out of line.

 

I can provide you additional info if you want. I have purchased from you and am on your mailing list. Also, your attorney  friend LS in Portland has my phone number as we talk frequently.

R. Heil
