Good morning from warm, windy and rainy Northeast Ohio!
Jimmy, thanks for starting us out and you are making great progress on that bridge/trestle combination.
I managed to get a couple of cars done despite all the bowling I did last weekend as I was participating in the city tournament for Cleveland.
Branchline 50' Double Door Boxcar kit, painted with Floquil PC Green and lettered with Microscale Decals. Car was originally built for the NYC as lot 864-B in 1957. Based on what I found it was in auto parts service and assigned to Pontiac Motors delivering axles.
This is the Third MDC 4700 CF FMC Covered Hopper kit I have built and painted in this scheme to service the new grain elevator at our club. Prototype was built in 1980 and changed hands numerous times as leases expired or changed hands.
Thanks for looking!
Rick Jesionowski
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!
It's that time again...Weekend photo fun
First time posters: This is where we post photos of our week(end) projects on our model railroad empires, or post archive shots.
Here's mine- a little update on the scratchbuilt trestle. Note this has been built entirely from styrene.
Let's see some good stuff this week, as usual.
