2003 Convention Cars
Cars will first be available at our convention in San Pedro, Ca, July 21-27, 2003. After August 1, 2003 remaining cars will be available from our Company Store. Phone/mail orders will not be accepted until Aug. 1 and availability is not guaranteed.

The HO Scale convention cars will actually be Cars and Containers to fit in with our theme of todays intermodial transportation.

We have made arrangements with Athearn, located in near by Compton, Ca. to make a special run of 3 cars and 4 containers in HO Scale.

The car is the Gunderson Husky Stack single well model GWF12. These cars were built in 91-93 and are in service today.
