Good morning Jarrell, and thanks for starting.  I say the same thing when I want a beer, its after noon somewhere!  Again another great picture!

It's been a while since I finished any new cars, but here they are.  Now I seem to be on a two week schedule with building, painting and decaling.

This is an old Details West 52' RBL (The Evans Blue Island Reefer), now in Ralston Purina Service hauling cereal.  Painted with Floquil Signal Red and lettered with Herald King Decals.

This is an Eel River Models 62' PC&F RBL used in Coors Beer Service at Golden, CO. Painted White and lettered with Oddballs Decals.

Since I mixed the paint for the Corn Syrup Tank car, I decided to paint a Corn Products Covered hopper at the same time. The car is an Atlas Kit (Not much work to assemble). Painted and decorated with Herald King Decals.

Thanks for looking!

Rick My 2 Cents

 

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!
