Blackstone Models are also announcing the road numbers for their third release of HOn3 tank cars. These tank cars represent the narrow frame UTLX (Union Tank Car Co.) cars that
traversed the Denver and Rio Grande Western and Rio Grande Southern Railroad's track throughout Colorado from the 1920s and into the 1960s and will be available in a variety of
road numbers and paint schemes. This release will also feature a small selection of CYCX tank cars.

Blackstone Models has announced several three-car multi-packs. These are available now!
| Part # | Scale | Description | Price |
| B400004 | HOn3 | Three painted, unlettered double-deck stock cars (for non-D&RGW narrow gauge lines) | $99 |
| Part # | Scale | Description | Price |
| B400005 | HOn3 | One each, weathered versions of the 5500 Series Stock Car, 3000 Series Box Car, and the 1000 Series High Side Gondola. | $144 |
HOn3 modelers will immediately take note of the unique livery of the new CYCX cars. In stark contrast to the yellow lettering of the typical UTLX car, these cars are adorned with white "Gothic" style reporting marks and utilize a more spartan approach to the data painted on the tank ends. None of the CYCX cars are equipped with tank side ladders that were applied to certain remaining UTLX cars during the war years. Because they were few in number, the CYCX cars are a special addition to any modeler's HOn3 collection and will find a special place in the consists of those diminutive tank and manifest trains!
