I model Northern Pacific in 1952-3. Until recently the only reasonably priced models availble weren't even painted the right colors (Athearn F-7). I started out with Art Curren's book on kit-smashing structures. Now, for anything I need, I look for a reasonable starting point and modify tell get what I want. Built an N.P. W-3 Mike from a Rivarossi heavy mike, per an old article in MR. Built an N.P. steel, tall cupola caboose from an Athearn kit. I'm starting to look at structure kits the same way Art C. did, as raw materials for what I want. <br /> <br />I'm not stating these facts to toot my own horn. I am having a Whale of a good time doing these things and am proud of what I have produced!
