Well, first off I DO like the high-end cars, but the KITS I tell, ya, the RTR high-enders are too expensive! To Orsonroy-I replied to your email, but keep those cars in mind still, If I find out I won't be able to buy enough cars to operate the layout smoothly in the beginning, I'll take them as stand ins for nicer cars until my budget and weathering skills allow for me to buy them. BTW Paul, the Q had 2-bay covered hoppers built in Havelock (or Galesburg, I can't remember) as early as 1940, but these were used for silca sand service only from what I gather. <br /> <br /> I may be able to get some extra money in, my mom is seeing if any of her friends need any yardwork done, my dad says he's going to make me put up hay this summer, and I had to write an American Legion essay, and mines at least one of the top 5 best, the Legion gives you money for the top three essays.[^] I ordered 3 Intermountain XM-29 boxcars on TBA from Intermountain thru my LHS, but these will probably be the last RTR high-enders I buy, since I like putting together kits and will be buying an airbrush next summer when the layout's basic structure will be finished. <br /> <br />When progress begins, I'll post more and I'll also post pics of the new layout whenever my parents decide to buy a digital camera.
