Thought I might start a thread about some of my weathered stuff.There may be pictures of several different scales posted here.Here is the first one.

This is(was) a cheap LifeLike HO trainset car.Aside from the extremely heavy weathering it has body mount KaDee couplers and Intermountain metal wheelsets.Only mods to trucks were removal of the talgo couplers.Only body mods were A-Line stirrups in place of the molded styrene units the were origonally on the car.
All weathering is done with acrylic paint washes. Weathering may appear excessive but this car is a many times recycled Erie Lacawanna 50' box now patched for my Grande Valley Railway.
