A Funaro & Camerlengo kit of a CNR 8 hatches reefer.

   

I wonder why I insist to put on all those small wires.

Because you asked for it in paint.  Some months later.

Welcome to Big Blue, rodsaw.  I'm pleased to see that you were finally able to get here.

Here's the poor-man's version of the CNR's 8 hatch reefer, done with a modified Athearn car.  The October, 1939 BLT. date makes it just under the wire to be on my late '30s-era layout...

Sorry I haven't commented earlier. That's a great job on both of the reefers. I have 3 of the F&C kits sitting on the shelf, waiting for their day on the workbench.

Thank you for the comment.  I replaced the F&C decals with Black Cats decals which are crisper, at least to my eyes.
