Was looking for metal ladders to replace the plastic ones on my already-built freight car fleet and to also put on the cars I haven't built. I'm talking mostly box cars and reefers when they still had full height ladders and roofwalks. Grabs aren't a problem - can get plenty of those in metal. Ditto for roofwalks - Plano is the answer there. Stirrup steps - A-Line. But ladders? Can't seem to find any, and not very many of the detail manufacturers have their own websites to where I can look. And, very often they don't put in info on material their stuff is made out of in listings for shops and vendors like Walthers. Merry Christmas (f the political correctness)
