HOn3 cars for TrainNut

[nachoman]

Sorry to disappoint you, Wayne, but these cars finally* are getting some paint. Today is decal day! I decided to make each one a little different. First, my prototypes:

I made one with the old herald, to look like #3254:

I also made two with the new "flying rio grande" herald, one to look like #3090
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cumbrestoltec.org/rs.php?num=3090">http://www.cumbrestoltec.org/rs.php?num=3090</a><!-- m -->
and one to look like #3348
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.narrowgaugememories.com/v/Rio+Grande+in+the+60s/farmingtonsilverton/DRGWfarmturnxinglatepm950.jpg.html">http://www.narrowgaugememories.com/v/Ri ... 0.jpg.html</a><!-- m -->

I chose the numbers based upon not wanting to duplicate many digits and having to buy a second decal sheet! It is also nice to have photographs of the specific cars. I will try to weather them accordingly.

Here the decals are drying on one side of the cars.

   

*I say "finally" because I have had a lot of weird distractions the past few weeks, including helping my dad with 3 unusual car problems, helping my dad move appliances and taking my neighbor to the hospital.
