Last night I was talking with Wolf and the subject of flatcars came up, ...

[J. S. Bach]

...and I told him that I thought I had about a dozen or so, referring to depressed-center flats (primarily Walthers and All Nation). Well that morphed into all flatcars. After I counted them up, I found that I have forty!! At least half are heavy-duty types.

Flatcars are like .45ACP rounds. You can never have enough.

[De Bruin]

I too have three depressed flats, one AN and two Walthers, and 2 "straight/conventional" Westbrooks too which unfortunately suffer from peeling sides.
I also have a more modern Weaver 50' Trailer Train which I like a lot, and then some 85' TOFC's both kit-built and factory PRC Atlas.

I concur, like pistol ammo, never have enough, though I prefer 7.62. and truth be told more of those 85' Pig Flats.

I am close. I think, without counting, four All Nation, two Walthers, one A-N modified for four axle trucks, two brass scratchbuilts, and one made out of walnut. That's ten?

No wonder I don't have any!

I might have 3-4 total...... I can build them in a day, but I have very rarely stopped at the flat car stage w/o continuing on to build some other car on top of the flat car base.

That total includes at least one traction flat that I bought from you at a Strasburg show.

Okay, make that 6-7 flatcars then as I was not including the traction roster,
