Very nice sir. Cheers
Thanks guys.

Here's the completed boxcab with painted trucks and underframe. The was sprayed with a coat of dullcote. I don't expect to work on the wiring until next week, so the project will be on hold for a little while before I weather it.

Matt, great work and very nice looking!

I made a short search after prototype photos and found this here - http://members.trainweb.com/bedt/indloco/errhsyard2.jpg including the base of your layout - The Harlem Station of Erie RR.
on Philop M. Goldstein's Website "INDUSTRIAL, OFFLINE TERMINAL RAILROADS & RAIL-MARINE OPERATIONS OF BROOKLYN, QUEENS, STATEN ISLAND, BRONX & MANHATTAN"

Matt, very nice modeling a great small layout!

Thanks Bernhard,

Yes, Mr. Goldstein's website was a valuable source of information when building the layout.

For the sake of sanity, I decided to paint the boxcab in it's later life scheme in the mid-50s (without the stripes).
