Even though these are sold out you may expect another run as these are one of the best cars I have ever seen.
Check out this review I did.

Thanks for the excellent video review, Mike. I am taken lately with the rolling qualities of the BLMA wheels. They roll! I never gave much thought before to the tolerances involved in replicating a circle in 160:1. I have several of the BLMA PS-4000 hoppers, and a few of the 52' gons. They all track and operate very nicely. Earlier today I put BLMA 33" wheel sets in some MTL truck frames, and the result is the same; very nice tracking with no wobble, and greatly-reduced front/back shimmy. Whether or not these wheels are at the root of the excellent operation of BLMA N-scale models, they are a fine product, and I do look forward to future releases by BLMA. Thanks again for the fine review! Ric
