I think that's a Jim Dandy idea!

Somthing just wrapped up and off the bench....

and a REALLY handsome car!

I should build a few more reefers just to use up the dry transfers that I have lollygagging about the shop.

I find those reefers with graphics to be among the most appealing freight cars!

Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more! Say no more!



You know what they say, "A wink is as good as a nod to a blind bat!".

Recent arrival a couple of weeks ago that I finally got round to......





.....with nice Fox trucks and not much that I need to do other than put it on the track and run it. Gads!!!!! I've slipped into RTR territory!

Pretty much the end of civilization as we know it!

Rufus! It’s a beauty! Who made it?

Rufus! It’s a beauty! Who made it?

It's a Stewart-Lundahl kit car that I recognized on eBay and scooped up for a good price. The other car in the lot was a victim to poor packing and USPS brutality - there was hole in the side of box. I might be able to reassemble that car with a bit of luck.

This followed me home from Rockville .......worth every penny for the trucks and couplers,

[2railjon]

You bought it just for the trucks and couplers? What’s it made of?

Tinplated steel - total scratch build -- actually cost me nothing - free. Best thing I can do with it is to salvage the trucks and couplers, and I can use the archbars. More than a little crude representation of a GLa hopper; maybe 17/64th's as well. Load is actually cardboard.

Rufus,

It is a beauty. How much do you want for the body only?
