What follows is my first attempt at posting photo images here from a brand new Photo bucket account. This is a "try-it-and-see-what-happens" deal!
I have resurrected a project intitially embarked upon in 1989. Everything has been packed away in boxes until unpacking from a recent move.
The project is to convert seven $1.97 "Sale Table" AHM RTR toy four-wheel bobber cabooses into detailed scale models for my currently cabooseless Lehigh Susquehanna & Western. The first photo (if I can get it to post) is an essentially "out of the box" RTR caboose, with curved side rails shaved off and board grooves scribed through.

The next photo shows the end rails shaved off, the cupola lamp removed and the platform railing mounting holes plugged.
