This was a old stained and rusted NYC Pacemaker box car that I got with some other trains from my friend Old Rob in N. Carolina. I figured that since it wasn't all banged up, it might be worth saving. I thought it came out pretty good just using what I had on hand. If I were to do it over, I would get the decals for rolling stock so I good get more of the data necessary for the side of the car...

Excellent job. I like it.
Great idea! I love Conrail blue very nice. 
Great job on those Glenn! Love the 38.
Chris, That one was my grandfathers . After he passed my brother got his home. It was tucked up in a hole in the foundation and was a mess. Motor froze solid, body a mess and missing some trim. I had another shell as the original was so badly rusted. Bob Hannon made me a new armature and the balance of the other parts came from Jeff Kane. I have become quite good at working on the open style motors out of neccessity. The red insulating fiber and spacer bushings used in those is a nightmare to deal with.
