Finishing flat cars 19, 20 and 21. Big Jim explained that I had the wheels mounted backwards on the Corsair. This goes to show my level of expertise in warplanes, which is almost nil. I remounted the wheels and then the plane would not fit widthwise on the flat car. I had to remove the wheels and mount them on the car as shown. I then built a platform to support the body of the plane under the wings and built a separate container for parts. I added the pilot for atmosphere.
The truck is a tank carrier built by Oshkosh in real life and SWORD as a 1/50 die cast model. I forget the model designation. I have a couple of more cars to build. One with two deuce and a half trucks and one with another tank. I guess there will be twenty three flat cars in all, two box cars, four troop sleepers and three variations of scale hospital cars. The train will be so long, the only place I can think of to to run it is, you know who.
