I recently built two of these nice Illinois Central Airslides. My local hobby store has an endless supply of Soo Line cars that i have been busily stripping

Yeah that is some nice work. Great job.
Great work. Any weathering to follow, or the fresh clean look?
Looks like factory! Great job!

Adam,
Those look fantastic! Great job. Malcolm
I hope to weather this one at some point. I have collection of about 15 custom IC freight cars and hope to weather them as a group once the layout comes closer to reality.

Adam, As always fantastic job on the IC airslide.
Is this Train Store having a super-sale on the Atlas O Soo Line 40' Airslide hoppers?
Now that Atlas O has made and planned to do the earliest GATX AIRSLIDE 40' Covered Hopper schemes, they might choose to do early IC and early SOO LINE graphic schemes in the next runs.

Not really a sale per se, they are the only 2 rail store in town and when possible i try to support them. They don;t have anything i can use without repainting though.
I hope Atlas doesn't do them, they did the same thing to me with the IC Hy-Cube cars, announcing them after I had painted 4... Though I believe mine look better as I have added proper cushioned draft gear, added weight, etc.
