Hello all,
Many of you may be aware of the recent release of the Berkshire Car Shop O scale TTC CLRV at the 2016 Fall Mass Transit Model meet in Parsipanny, NJ. About 3 weeks before the meet Ed Skuchas sent me some kits (I ordered 3) and I was able to build one to use a demonstrator for the meet. A lot of trial and error, but I got it (almost) done in time!
I have been working with Ed to get the bugs out of the kit and working with a decal maker to produce the decals.
Since then, I built a second one, with lessons learned from the first. I thought it would be good to have a guide for those interested in this kit, since there are no instructions. I photographed each step I took in the construction process as I progressed. Using these photos, I put together a website to show the process in the hopes that it will inspire others to take the plunge and build one.
It is an excellent kit and makes a very realistic model when complete. It includes a full interior and truck sideframes to be added to Q-Car Co. universal LRV trucks (not included).
