i ama fan of these models, fun to paint and letter. Although purists will find faults, the models are affordable and fit rather well for many early boxcar prototypes. Enjoy

Cool!!!!
Brad,
What are your sources for decals?
Thanks,
Ed
I like the BAR - should I do that to my PSC, or just dump it? I seem to run the All Nation, and just store the PSC.
Ed,
these are protocraft, but I have commissioned custom runs for others. I just did sets for Norfolk and western BPa and both versions of BP boxcars. I also did a run of usra decals for single and double sheathed cars. M roads included MP, SP&S, rf&p, rock island, SP, CNW, frisco, CM st paul, c&o, b&o, Erie and DL&w...
Bob, paint it up and run it!
Bob2: if you have a single sheathed Psc to spare, let me know!
Okay. It is in Scale Coat oxide, and sounds really tinny when it runs. Haven't bothered to decal it. Its brothers see some operation - they rumble when rolling, and are mostly older than me. It is ready for decals.
Bob,
my my email is in my profile, please shoot me a message. You have the original box?
Thanks for sharing your work.
And that Trucolor paint is N&W specific? I'll have to get some.
Very nice work, really!
You mean Brad's work. I concur. The boxcar above was merely purchased and sprayed - no work at all.
