    That explains the hook and loop couplers.


    They are actually the stock knuckle couplers. The screws are completley rusted, so I cannot even get them off if I wanted to, unless there is a way I do not know about.

    Cornborn, that is being a scaleist, LOL[:D][:p][;)]

  • Scale power!
  • WEll max joininng the club of the modelers with layouts.............. I MUST tell you a easy whay to do bench work if you whant to know more call me. And max you were wrong that was a observation because there are too many windows to be a bisness car because it would have been seperated by partisions thus setting off the standerd heveyweight paired windows. Also the windows on the buisness car usally the last 3 were larger than the rest because of the lounge area. LOOK AT THE CAR NORTHLAND FOR AN EXAMPLE!![;)][:D]
    James love the new r.r. pics. Was that a famous "brick" sd35 or was it a generic sd40??Picture quallity on post hard to desifer from.
    TCC MAN: you are lucky to live in a area that is still warm enough to do projects out side at this time of year.
    SEE YA[:D][8D]
  • nssr, I live in Pennsylvania, and the weekend has been gorgeous. Yesterday morning I went on a 10 mile bike ride. I love my bike, a Haro Mirra 540, the frame is not painted, just raw steel, and you can see the welding marks.
    Colin from prr.railfan.net
  • WOW!!! LOVE THE RAW STEEL< COOL PAINT SCEAM FOR THE PASS. CARS!
  • Not really!
  • NSSR, that is just the left over color from when I sanded them down. The will be red with black stripes, like the Lehigh Valley's Black Diamond heavyweight cars.

    The raw steel was what attracted me to the bike but I would have gotten it anyway, suits my needs for my stunts.
