Resin Car Works honcho Frank Hodina was recently alerted to a prototype hopper that matched the RCW model for the Enterprise design, 33-foot, offset-side, twin hopper that has been in production for a while. Decal art has been produced and we can announce a new addition to the line! Kit 2.03 covers the KGB&W hoppers.

The Kewaunee, Green Bay & Western installed chiseled offset-side hoppers from Pullman in 1949. These were numbered in the 401-420 series. See the Kits page on the RCW website for ordering details.

Frank also found several sets of decals for the US Army version of these kits, so this is available again. The decal supply is limited and this will be discontinued when the decal sets are gone.

As a note, we have heard complaints from modelers who have missed our kit releases. Some folks found out about our kits after they sold out. Kits are discontinued when sales drop off. The molds for resin casting last through a finite number of production use. When sales drop and the molds are worn, the kit is discontinued.

The Resin Car Works minions do not produce extras to sit on a shelf awaiting orders. We focus on producing a new kit. We understand some people miss the announcements and are disappointed.
