Here's the last "known" taker I was missing and finally got my grubby paws on, #313-E. It was mentioned in one catalog but which year escapes me at the moment... and it's so dang scarce it was probably made for just that one year to boot.
Any NFL fans here? This car has a historic football reference... who wants to take a stab at it?

| The car is older than Deuce Staley so I won't go there, even though I just did. I would venture Ken is correct, makes sense.

And the Englishmen rumbles over the line for the touchdown!
Upon reviewing the play, I am duly impressed - and now ashamed to admit I know nothing of your strange brand of furrin', how you say, "fuut bowl".
Don't hold that against me.

| OK. I guess I knew a little something after all... but beyond that, all I know is the matches are known for devolving into something akin to American "Wrestling" "Entertainment". Hee hee.

You are right Tony. The Staley tank appeared in the 1957 Mantua Kits Catalog on page 8 and was its only appearence.

Nice cars Burlington77 and GIC! Its funny they did an MK hopper car because when I think of MK I think of locomotive leasing and rebuilding. I remember seeing that hopper car back in the 80's at shows and a few different store.
Nice find GIC! I have'nt really touched on the older TYCO stuff outside of the brown box era. I have a hard enough time just keeping up with the later production items...lol From what LoopnHook posted this car would be from the late 50's early 60's?

Was Cataloging Some items last Night. Took Over 175 Pictures of Microbusss Favorites, Billboard Cars. And came upon this Bev-Bel Car.
Todd may like this one if he doesn't have one already.

| Yes, VHO, I do have that car. I remember when I picked that up. It was the first time I went to the First Frost train show in Allentown PA about 5 years ago. I felt obliged to make it mine.
