Milled with my CNC.

beautiful. I really need to convince the wife that I need a CNC router. Between the modeling and wood working I would use it, especially in wood working but that car side is encouraging.
Fancy… I should of not been surprised…

Removed the roofwalk, plugged holes and added printed bits of filler ribs.
Added brass grabs on the sides, cut and re-used end ladders. And, as you can see, I made a new piece for the end to add some roof overhang and a different vent pattern.
Dan,
Can I be “that guy” and ask for the filler ribs file?
Wow Dan, I can already tell that is going to look great when complete. Nice work.

Thanks Dan. I’ll be downloading and printing off a few.
14 per car. They are slightly oversized so sand to fit. A bit tedious but you are used to that.

I had a test file started and was tweaking the angle but that’s as far as I got.
Need another one with the roof walk supports still on. 
I’m sure I have plenty of pics already but I stopped at the P&W yard in Putnam and took few more of a door latch assembly. Drew up both handle up and handle down.

John, Didn’t you make at least one by applying the “bump outs” to an LGB car?
i did.
hours of sanding styrene and it looks half as good as yours. I had to weather it heavily to cover up the sloppy cratsmanship
