Frederick,
Thank you for finding this info. Old Model Kits is a great source for those of us vintage modelers. The Joseph Conrad and Sea Going Diesel tug were close to 1/87 scale for us railroad modelers. I have both; though as Lindberg reissues.

I auctioned about ten of the 1/32 Pyro car kits a few years ago as I wanted to include a garage or so in my Clervaux dio. Because a change of plans they are still sitting on the shelf awaiting a dio on their own.

Nice subjects and superbe cars
