Make a 55n3 Caboose from a Bachmann On30 Caboose
#1
I have a web article about making a 55n3 caboose from a Bachmann On30 caboose at:

The same principle can be applied to the Bachmann On30 Passenger cars to make them 55n3.

Thank you if you visit

"Most nineteenth century narrow gauge cabooses didn't have ladders or roof walks."

This Cheers is why I like this board!

I did not know that!

To learn, is to live! Thanks.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!

Looking at my car cyclopedia's and White's wooden car book, ladders and roof walks on cabooses didn't come about until late in the nineteenth century.

Nice work. These techniques are also useful for people wishing to cut down HO cars into HOn3, and for those wanting to cut down HOn3 cars to HOn30.
