[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by John Busby</i> <br /><br />Hi joe <br />Had a thought the other day danreouse these thoughts have you thought about fitting a box car with passanger trucks and painting it to match the coach for passangers baggage. <br />Saw this trick on the indian Pacific the other day and thought that has to be the easyist modification out doesn't even rate being called a kit bash. <br />regards John <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yes, I plan to paint and letter a boxcar to match the coaches, albiet I can't find inexpensive passenger trucks. Henceforth, I shall have to live with it as a regular boxcar and return it to the road as a freight car when my combine or baggage car is available. <br /> <br />If I find some passenger trucks, I will keep your suggestion handy. What will be cool is that I plan to weather it slightly when it leaves passenger service and maybe, depending on what trucks it ends up with, make it into a "tool car." <br /> <br />Nevertheless, I will send you images of whatever I do with the boxcar. First I must buy one...look for more on the Garden Flyer" Boxcar/Baggage near August. <br /> <br />Later eh...(oops sorry that's not me...) <br />Keep 'em flying
