My C&S stockcar bash

[nkp_174]

Fred, glad you enjoyed it! I typically get more enjoyment out of understanding the prototype than I get out of modeling it. In fact, I find that much of the fun in prototype modeling is learning the answers to questions that I never would have thought of if I were just reading about the prototype or freelancing cars.

I was going to post a few more photos tonight...with the car alongside a couple of the SUF cars...but mini-me got to my card reader while I was at work and it won't let me download the photos now. Oh well.

I'm getting pretty close to completing this car. I'm torn between finishing off the other two C&S stock cars, finishing my C&S caboose, or starting my C&S reefer. I'll probably try to focus on finishing up the others first...that'll give me a six car C&S freight train in short order...plenty for my B-man 2-6-0 conversion to pull. Then there is the need to finish up my son's 1:20.3 D&RG 2-4-0 before Christmas... hock:
