I'm seeking box cars with branding as follows:-

1 x 'Hershey' or, even better, 'Reese's Peanut Butter Cups'
1 x 'Nestlé'
for the project I'm currently running

https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?topic=49757.msg643480#msg643480

I'm not wanting to pay a fortune so, although there is stuff to be found on Fleabay, postage costs are just prohibitive.

Also, if anyone is aware of other confectionery branded box cars I'd appreciate knowing about them e.g.
Wrigley
Mars
Frankford Candy
Comet Confectionery (Canada)

Are you looking specifically for North American wagons, or any wagons with chocolate branding?

As long as it's a company I dealt with in my career I'm really not fussed, Squiddy

Surely, for Nestlé, you would want Swiss rolling stock

If anything I'd prefer UK rolling stock but there's nothing out there to my knowledge.
Bear in mind when I dealt with them they were still Rowntree Mackintosh but were Nestlé later on!
I happen to know that US stock with Nestlé branding does actually exist.

Micro Trains do/did a whole range of Hershey's wagons

They also did a number advertising Baby Ruth candy

Thanks for those links. I'm now after the Nestlé car I provided the link to, a Hershey car and the Reese's peanut Butter Cups one in your first link. As I say, the problem is the cost of getting them over here from the USA. I scoured the website of Plus Daughters in th UK as they stock quite a lot of North American stuff but to no success.

I've just stumbled across a super website I'm sure US modellers are already aware of but please bear in mind this is my first (and maybe last) dabble with continental stuff. I already have bookmarked the TroveStar catalogues site but here's another of theirs....

I now know exactly which Wrigley, Nestlé and Hershey box cars were made, by whom and reference numbers. Finding any at a reasonable (by that read - cheap) price will be a different thing entirely

Here are the items I'm seeking. I don't want them all, just one or two of each brand but I just don't know what is available out there. If anyone in the States could source any and send them over on one package I'd be a happy boy, but multiple sources/shipping costs will just be a killer

The Freight Yard item 2163C 'Wrigley'

The Freight Yard item 9941A 'Hershey'

Wheels of Time item 61151 'Nestlé' or 61152 'Nestlé'

Athearn items 14177 and 14178 'Nestlé'

Microtrains item 021-00-280 or 21280 'Hershey'

Microtrains item 021-00-300 or 21300 'Reese's'

Concor 1351F

Conco 1671L

Any help much appreciated.
