Here's a recent ebay score. I've been looking for this one for a while. It came all the way from across the pond and after shipping still only cost me about $40...the original retail price!

Thanks guys! The cars have yet to be cleaned; the lettering is already quite faded on a few so I'll have to be careful. Luckily the yellow/grey doesn't show dirt as much as the common silver cars. 
Ben: Keep your eyes open, you'll find a set. I have faith in you!

Interesting that it came with a gp20 instead of an F...

I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?"

Not an official set you could buy, but I will add as my SOTW my 3 Olde Frothingslosh Beer Reefers.
I am putting a brewery and beer garden on my layout, and of course the brewery needs dedicated rail cars to keep production flowing
The cars themselves are old Athearn/Lionel/??? reefers that I found in the junk bins at train shows - stripped, repaired, repainted and then I put paper "Olde Frothingslosh" car sides on them.
Not completely shown, the "Beer Run" is being pulled by a Tyco GP20....
