Blog Update on SP Gondola

You are correct - very difficult to find a brass model as accurate as that.

 

I scrolled down and also saw the EJ&E box car.  I am currently lusting after some decals to do one of those.

 

I am really stunned by the efforts of your Proto-48 friends - this is truly the accurate end of 1/4" scale modeling.

Looks excellent Gene... the draft gear solution really brings the car to life. 

 

The rendition of the stamped steel is awesome.. the crimp where the diagonals overlap the horizontal braces is downright beautiful.  

 

I hope sales take off... it would be great to have more of thosee to complement the San Juan kits.   These are state of the art O scale kits.

Thank you for your comments.   The kit was fun to build.
More kits are possible from Glacier Park Models including an all steel version.
