Thanks, Pete, but I'm still working on freight cars (another dozen to re-build), then about four dozen to paint and letter. After that, I've a pair of Bachmann Ten Wheelers that will be first up - I finally managed to "narrow" the overly-wide tenders, a solution that had previously eluded me and held up the rest of the work. Actually, I knew the solution, but was searching for someone with a table saw. I finally got fed-up waiting and, after a "test run" using a couple of AHM stockcars and a handsaw, the tender bodies have been modified. I had intended to use the same method for the floor/frame, but in order to retain the mounting positions for the trucks, two cuts were required, one just inboard of each of the sidesills. Due to a less-than-neat bunch of cuts, I'll be making new floors for both tenders.
