I've been painting these URR flat cars that my friend and forum member Joe Shipbaugh scratch built. Joe did a fantastic job!

There is also a Malcolm Byrd caboose in the second shot! How lucky can a guy get!

Please don't let my question deflect the direction of Dave's post of those awesome cars: but David, whose layout were those pictures taken on? That 1st image is truly fantastic.

David,

if you painted the steel plates, you did one heck of a job. They look exactly like the plates I see on our tank jobs.
