Really nice work on that combine, Rooster!
Masterfully done Rooster. A real beauty!
You have earned for yourself a most prominent perch amongst the residents in the coop! 
Thanks Guys! With that said I think I’m finished with the kitbash and proved a point to myself as well! CVRR #317 drug it out of the shops today for a photo opportunity! After the shop crew spent the morning putting it together. 
Here’s some finished close up shot’s and yes I can take it all apart!
Off to the next project…what ever that may be?
Purty!!
Great job Rooster. I do believe you succeeded
That turned out AWESOME!!! Very nice work rooster David
Nicely done! Looks great.
Looks great… but one wonders what decaling he will put on it…
Is it done, yet?
Absolutely beautiful. I kitbashed a diner out of these cars, and thought it pretty cool, but THIS is superb. Easily a contest winner in ANY competition. You should take it to Chicago, or at least enter it into one of GR’s monthly photo contests.
The thought, attention to detail and workmanship make it a winner!
Sah-Wheat!
Very nicely done. Good job.

Beautiful! Such an interesting car too, with that little “porch” along the side.

I dont think Rooster has ever left Southeast PA. I think he would need a passport to cross the borders out of PA. I cant even get him up my way.

Hi David:
Thank you for posting the Pioneer loco information. Fascinating to view that era of mechanical engineering. A Victorian cab could have made that loco quite attractive. The inspection car sister loco doesn’t look too bad.

What an interesting car! Great craftsmanship for sure.

Nice work there. Where did you get the seats? They come with one of the cars?
