Scotia Scale models rolling stock

[cnrglen]

Thank You, everyone.
As challenging as these kits are, I wouldn't mind finding more of them. I think I might have a CN Caboose that another modeller started that was one of them as well. But that's another story altogether.

I started work on my second Scotia Scale Models Kit, a wood sheathed Boxcar.



This one doesn't have a truss rod frame, but a fish-belly instead, a bit easier to work with.

I started by building the basic box frame.



Then I flipped it over and marked out where all the basic frame parts will go.




Here I added the c-frame pieces around the edges, the two bolsters and the center 'fish-belly' frame parts. the slots cut in the center parts are for brake levers to be added later. I hope to get more progress done on the model this weekend.
