Hello,
the Bear Creek crew is working on a new combine for their passenger service.
The car is mostly build the same way as the old coach. I used this carshop job to spend new plattforms to the old coach with US typical stairs and brake wheel.
I started the new car with the trucks, build from plywood. I used templates to cut the parts. The wheelsets are bought RTR and has ball bearings for a smooth run.
The car body is made from plywood two and I nailed a lot of stripes on it to design the side walls and doors. The carbody was then painted green with white lettering, airbrushed with stencils.
Yesterday I got the new plattforms done with couplers and brake wheels. As mentioned above, I've made 4 new plattforms and replaced the old ones on the coach.
Next I'll make the roofs. The coach will get a new one too since the roof is broken due to a free flying disconnect hock:
Cheers, Gerd
