Flat car shell build up | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

chester7OGR Forum Member

I bought some mth flat car shells and decided to machine my own truck mounts & center support. I also machined new bearing cups out of bronze bearing material & got rid of the worn out plastic ones from some used IDM trucks I got at my LTS. Then I painted the deck of the flat car.
