Freight car projects for the Grande Valley Railway
#18
On to another project.This one is a Bachmann Center-Flo.Still to be done is a rework of the stirrups and a body mounted coupler (most likely a KaDee #58).Mods so far are lowering the side ladder replacing the ladder rungs and putting in the cross brace that Bachmann left off.I have started on the B end by removing the hi mount brake wheel.it will be moved down to the modern location.Everything else will get the same changes the A end has.Once I have either got all of the cars done (or I get bored with this operation Eek ) I will go back and do some fine tuning on the cars to clean them up some.Some will get now paint jobs and some will get some really cruddy weathering like the blue TYCO hopper up above.
