Prototype Information:

An All-New Intermodal Car release from Kato USA!  One of the most commonly seen Intermodal Well Cars seen riding the rails today is the MAXI-I 40' Intermodal Car.  Run as a set of 5 Wells, these cars are designed to carry 40 foot containers in the bottom position while being able to accept larger sized containers (as seen below) in the top position.

This is the pre-production artwork provided to us by Kato.

We found these shots by Keith Belk on RailcarPhotos.com and have requested his permission to use them.  Great shots Keith! Thanks. 
RailcarPhotos.com is a great place to research railroad cars and locate the prototypes you want to model.

These are images of the containers that will be provided with the MAXI-I's in Release 1 & 2.

Stock Checks:

Inventory is a fluid commodity.  It changes by the hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson. When we held items for customers’ orders, the order never materialized 80%+ of the time.  We lost out on the orders placed while the item was on hold.  Also we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items are available and if possible attempt to locate what we don’t have while you are on the phone.
