Incredibly realistic, Steve! It looks like you can walk up to these cars, touch them, and have the rust flake off in your hands!

I agree regarding the high level of details on these cars. I bought the Lehigh Valley's...but won't be weathering them for a while. IMO, cars as nice as these deserve to be weathered by true professionals such as yourself!

Just wish Lionel would s#*%-can those cheesy-looking plastic coal loads and replace them with something more realistic. These cars deserve better!

Great work as always...and thanks for sharing.

They are very nice, excellent detail. What are the inside measurements? I'm curious to see if any loads I have would fit. I don't have a Lionel scale 2 bay in my inventory.

Steve - I have stacks of these boxes in house here and opened one and it doesn't look anything like the pictures you shared! What the heck happened?

Maybe Steve's sat a little longer! Weathered or not, they are nice.

Weathering 20 cars for Don Klose, cars are not mine.

Have to make them look like operations seen once in upstate NY...

Just finished the MTH 3 crate flats, they are very nice also.

Need anything weathered, 47 ea. Booked till Sept.
