I know the MDC Roundhouse name, its very old, but I cant find much in the way of info on them. Where did you find the kit, how much etc. The article is nice, except lack of info on finding the kit.

Not my project. Email the fellow. He does show up here at times.

Check ebay.

Check the Yahoo Group for MDC/Roundhouse.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mdcroundhouse/

Check the below site for diagrams. All kinds of MDC info.

You might even search out the Trains.com site. He does show up there.

Hi GG1
The Roundhouse Boxcab has been out of production for years. There are thousands that were made, and not too hard to find. My "article" is an instruction on improving the model, finding the components to create one isn't my responsibility nor is it realistic for me to do so on my blog.
