Yes Ken, Model Die Casting Co. Walter Baker must be the fellow how started Baker's Chocolate Co. That and the Best Foods tank cars are definitely nice cars. We food shop at a Best Food's store. frank

Imagine that, a seller that doesn't know what he's selling.
Yes, +2 for MDC/Roundhouse 26' Old-time tank car kits. Possible the Baker's is a Bev-Bel or other custom decorator release, I don't have any reference to look up what names they originally offered on these.

vintage tankers... perhaps once ordered from a "Walther's" catalog... whence, "Walther's" tank cars.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?
