K-Line Santa Fe Map Boxcars

Jerry, I bought the 64230 series cars back in the early 1990's. I believe there are 9 cars (64231-64239). The 64237 car of the series was painted incorrectly, there is no map on the car.

As far as the 64850 series black roof cars, if you do a search on them, only the first 3 cars or so come up. My guess is the 64850 series was never completed.

There was a series of orange map cars, too.

There were two orange sets, I have both but are currently in storage. Set #'s were 766-1051A and B. 4 cars sets and about as beautiful as you could want. I'm thinking I bought these new about 1999 or 2000  ( a long time ago....!).

Jerry, my advice is buy the set your being offered,complete sets rarely come up and if the price is fair it would be a nice addition to your fleet.

I beleive the brown cars are box cars and the orange cars reefers.

I was collecting the reefers, in fact two sets so I could have all the names show from both sides of the track. I beleive I never did get a full set though. There was also a second run later of the reefers more detailed but I only was able to get 2 or 4 of the cars and also wondered if all were made befor K-Line went under.

Like mentioned above one of the reefers also had both sides the same. Sounds like both the box and reefers were done at the same time in the paint shop.

The first set of reefers were made at the same time as the boxcars (1990-1992). There were 8 cars (75031-75038).

The second set(s), as John stated, came out in about 2000. Here is a link.
