One of several mini projects that I had cluttering up my workbench was this caboose that I had attempted to 'fix' a not-so-great weathering job on. This gave me the opportunity to burn up another precious decal set and to try out another PRR paint mix suggested by this site:

I went for the half special oxide red and half zinc chromate primer mix, two colors that are now gone with the death of Polly Scale. For some reason I didn't paint the cupola thinking it was supposed to be all black but a quick internet search now tells me I will be fixing it tomorrow night. Aw well, here's some quick shots anyway.
I have yet to dust it with a bit of grimy black, not sure I will...
