Nice collection of specialty cars you have there.

RE: Charlie b's layout - LiveSteamer - 03-01-2024

Looking great charlie. You sure have been busy putting decals on the cars.

Awesome If I did that in N scale, it would take two days just to get them on the track. Icon_rolleyes

Just 2 days?  Icon_lol

Charlie were they even at full throttle?

RE: Charlie b's layout - Charlie B - 03-08-2024

Good morning. 

     Matt, the train was at half throttle.  I very seldom run trains over 60% throttle. 

     I am still decaling with odd ball decals from Standard Hobby Supply which has been out of business for t least 15 years.

     I plan on doing a few more today.

Looking good. I really like the express reefer, but then again I am sucker for express reefers.

Charlie,

it is outstanding to see some not so common box car lettering. Applause

Charlie they were pulling pretty good for being at half throttle.

RE: Charlie b's layout - Charlie B - 03-10-2024

I decaled 2 more cars tonight. None of these have been clear coated or dull coated. I am going to do a bunch at a time when I do them. That will make the decals look better.
