Well, it looks as if there are no "Steam Area Classics" in the new Atlas CatLog. I was also disappointed to see that there are no troop sleepers in the catalog.
Although I have 500+ freight cars all in the 1930's - early 60's eras it is always nice to see something new in a road name you do not have. I was hoping to see a return of the troop sleepers. Zinc rot is continuing to plague the Weaver troop car trucks and frames. I noticed a post a month or so ago by guys looking for troop car replacement parts. I recently used my last set of replacement trucks, and I was also given a troop sleeper with a rotted frame that I would like to raise from the dead.
Thanks, and take care,
Richard
