Gary,
Tank Workshop and Ironside are the only two manufacturers of Box Cars. I'm not sure what Ian was refering too, but DML has not manufactured a boxcar. They make several flat cars (Tiger and Panther), and several frieght wagons (including a gondola), but none that are covered. I have the Tank Workshop and Ironside boxcars and I would recommend neither one. The TW one is poorly cast and is very chunky. The Ironside one has vauge detail. I modified the chasis from a DML kit to fit the Ironside box. That seems to work.
