I’d bought one of the Accurail plug door reefers to see how much work it will be to make a MP flour car. The model has separate ends that are nicely cast, correct number of side panels and correct roof. The modeling effort will be to remove the cast on hatches, all the plug door details, side tack board, poling pockets, cast on hand holds and ladders. So it’s a little more work but it’s a cheap (and the only) way to add one of these unique MP cars to your roster. As mentioned Hubert Mask is willing to make a decal set for these cars so stay tuned.
