HO Tour Car Pictures

[Tom]

I just got back from a week long business trip to San Antonio Texas and what was sitting in my interchange (ok, in the mail pile on my desk)?

   

This is going to be fun.

Work has kept me from having the time to work on my layout, so no promises that my layout will be ready in the near future to host the car, but! I have a "Plan "B""

My brother's layout came out of mothballs a couple of wees ago and him and I have been spending time helping him clean it up and restore it. ALL of the buildings except for a certain few are sitting on two folding tables as we have been cleaning them and doing touch up work on structures and have a box of trees we need to re-add. Give us a few days and we'll be ready to roll with our first freight over the line in 7 years. We have already test ran a variety of power, including a 5 car test train of heavy weights led by his newly gifted (you're welcome bro!, lol) UP 4-8-4, and this weekend, we should have a bunch of photos for you guys.

   

Whoever built the car and the box, you have SKILLS! My girlfriend and I are still marveling at this box design.
