@CAPPilot,

Ron,

If you're willing to do it, the easiest solution is to change the build date on that very nice N8 to 2-49. Either that, or just say that the car was built in 12-49 but someone got ahead of themselves and stenciled it 2-50...

Like you I thought about changing 50 to 49, which will work for 99.9% of the folks who see the model.  I also thought about it being a prototype that got release before production.  I may go with the number change.

While the Pennsy had a lot of N5 and N6 cabins, it would be nice if a current manufacturer would make something other than the N5c or N6b.  Lionel did do a run of N5b cabin in 2016 with its square windows; wouldn't mind seeing another run.  I am sure most other forum members also wish there were more caboose choices for their favorite railroad.
