Bachmann flat car, now EBT gondola

Modeling
#1

Okay, so it took less than 48 hours from when I bought it to when it was rebuilt… What can I say?

It’s shown coupled to the Bachmann hopper.

Close-up of the end of the car, showing the relocated brake staff and gondola side details. A description of the process can be found here: http://www.mylargescale.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=44154 Next up, the hopper. Don’t know what all I’m going to do with that. There are some details that are just wrong, but I need to figure out how bad they bug me before I start any surgery. I don’t want to have to repaint the sides, since the cars are already lettered for the EBT. Later, K

Actually, she’s been here a year–it’s taken me that long to find time to get BACK to the workshop. :wink:

Beautiful work, as always! I especially like the nail holes in the planks.
