??!! Bulkhead flats don't hold containers in the prototype, they're
typically used in lumber service. If you want a flat that holds
containers and you don't want to go doublestack, you should probably
make it a piggyback flat. Many of those were modified to have container
hardpoints before doublestacks became common and you still see them
today used in mixed service (doublestacks most often appear in unit
trains or all container/pig trains)

I don't recall selling you any. But I am forgetful, so if I did, the
next para doesn't apply.
If I didn't, what you have is a reasonable facsimile, which is fine with
me, people are more than welcome to suss out whatever they can from what
I've made publicly available and make close copies. But an official
Larry Hopper comes with instructions, if you don't have those, you don't
actually have the set. The only way to get those is to buy them from me,
or from someone who decided to sell theirs. The instructions are
copyrighted with reproduction rights reserved to me, so there's no other
legal way to acquire them.
