Edward asked:


I just received the first of two A1G #3103 auto transporter cars in
the mail today. Did Atlas really do a Sea Board car or did they
mislabel the box as the car inside carries Frisco lettering.

Thought this was odd.

Still working on getting pictures of the variations I have found.

This had to have been some kind of mix-up becuase every Frisco transport I've
seen has been in the Sea Board box and I have never seen a Sea Board
transport. I think that's a pretty good indication.

I guess this is a correct assuption as I received the second 3103
today and it is the same, box says Sea Board with a car with Frisco
on it. This second one is not in good shape (good thing I got two
of them, the first one was MIB).

Thanks for shedding some light on this.
