#5.5 NORTHERN PACIFIC LEASE REEFERS

Description

Released February 2001

Release as a three pack and a single car, a total of four cars.

These cars are part of the American Fruit Packer Series, as a bit of an experiment back in the year 2000 when this series was only five years old.

To date, only three people have opened the three pack, or run those three cars. how do we know you ask?

Hidden in the three pack, is a paper. Think Fortune Cookie style paper, asking the reader to contact me. Yep, that really happened.

Now twenty two years later, we might as well talk about it!

I love this paint scheme, and Micro-Trains had never done it as of January 2001 when I did these.

NSC# 00-91 (three pack)Rd#’s 91045, 91053 & 91018
NSC# 00-92 (single)Rd# 91021 

Original Price $84.95 (3 pack)
Original Price $29.95 (single car)

Just a quick note to acknowledge receipt of my AFT Tool Car. Thanks so much for another Outstanding Piece of Craftsmanship! The AFT is my most prized “N” Scale collection. I had perceived that there were delays in getting this last car into our hands, but thought it was a problem with China. Your letter…

Every new release from your Signature Series gets me revved up for the rails.

Ferdinand Magellan is great! This really fits your mission of offering significant cars that otherwise wouldn’t be produced.

Nothing better than receiving that white box from Lowell Smith.

Keep up setting the bar high and providing a product that exceeds expectations.

Thank you ever so much for being such an integral part of the model railroading hobby!

Blunt End Observation is a GRAND SLAM! I’ve wanted this car for ages but never figured out a good way to kitbash it.

I look forward to continuing to buy trains from my favorite special run train maker. That’s how I think of you now, “The Train Maker”.  And speaking of cool trains, I just received a box loaded with great looking Texas Special cars. Thanks.  I certainly look forward to all the new releases you are planning.

Thank you for all that you do for the N Scale community. Your products by far, in my opinion, are the top of the line when it comes to N Scale Trains and I am always on the lookout for them when they come up for auction.
