Dear Grahame,
The heavyweights are not currently in production. Hopefully they'll make a return down the road.
Have fun!

Spectrum didnt do a RPO or Baggage, probably have to shell out the $30-$40 for a walthers version.(they match very closely as i have a baggage. atleast the B&O Colors match)

There was no RPO.  And the Bagagge car that Bachmann made was a combine that sat at the lead of the train.  The passenger side typically served as seating for the crew.  Needless to say it was very very nice, and no one else has bothered to make any.

I miss Bachmann's heavyweights.  They are/were good cars.

There are still a lot of Spectrum Heavyweight passenger cars available, check the various on-line model railroad outlets and of course e-bay.
