I made tank straps and a handrail out of brass, installed the trucks, and placed the tank on the frame. Everything fits together well, and the couplers are at approximately the right height. Next comes brake rigging (anyone have a good photo or diagram of the bottom of a tank car? :?: ). After that, just a few more details such as the side ladders, stirrup steps, and DOT placards. Then comes paint and decals, and I am done :mrgreen:
