Awhile ago there was an OGR Forum post with an internet link to Weaver's Complete Product List that was saved somewhere.
Does anybody have this info?
Thanks.

Thanks Chessie 1971. One thing I was looking for...Weaver VO-1000 diesel in Jersey Central. I know they made #1062, #1065 and #1066 but were there more roadnumbers for CNJ?

Your welcome! I don't know Walter if they did.
Thank you, for posting this information. You made my day.
Your welcome!
Is there any place, where I can go to see pictures of these freight cars?
Jim i don't know if there is but i never found any place. Weaver did have pic's on the fact page you could open but no longer can do that. Maybe somebody chime in may have a more info.
Thank you CHESSIE1971 for that information. Like you, I haven't been able to find anything. I was able to down load most of the pictures of the freight cars that were made for our store before their website was taken down. However, there were a couple I didn't get.
One way to look for old information from Weaver is the Internet Wayback Machine (you can google this.) Web page contents are archived from time to time and I found Weaver catalogs from 2009, 2010 and 2011 to download. Using the Wayback machine you should be able to find the images you are seeking.

I was just going to mention the Wayback Machine.
You can search any old website using this tool. Enter weavermodels.com in the search field and it will give you a bar chart showing all "snapshots" of the old website, by year.

Click on the year you want to search and then click on a date in the calendar with a blue circle. Larger circles (generally where there are taller bars in the chart) will typically have more archived content.
Custom runs from Jim's Train Shop are featured in the June, 2004 snapshot and I'm sure several others. Images of all cars may or may not be present, but you could look at other dates.

This is still one of my favorite cars:

I would like to say thank you to every one that posted links to different Weaver custom run freight cars. I had started to download pictures of our custom run freight cars just before Weaver pulled their website. However, I never got them all. I have no one to blame but myself. I have pictures of most of them.
