Done! Brass 4-6-2.
Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, November 16, 2003 7:56 PM
Well ladies and gentlemen it took me a while, but i just finished a custom paint job on a brass 4-6-2 sent to my custom painting business.

After 33.25 hrs, which includes, disassembly, painting, decoder installation, reassembly and touch up, Its time to break out some cherry coke and celebrate. Oh the fact that I'm $220.00 richer is a nice thought to.

What do you all think?

Living is cheap in WY. Two bedroom apartment utilities paid. plus services. $475.00 a month. $100.00 pays for groceries for a month. Anything after is play money. Yahoo. (Plus having government subsidies inform of government grants for college helps to)
