Mini HyCube boxcar

Posted by DTI356 on Sunday, February 7, 2010 2:41 PM

I've been busy....I scratchbuilt this car...in 1/29 scale.
I wanted a Hycube boxcar I could run on my indoor layout and these MiniHycube appliance cars fit the bill.
To make it easier on me I decided to cast the pieces so I only had to scratchbuild 1 side, 1 door, 1 roof, and the end is a kitbash from a USA Trains boxcar.

What do you think?
