N scale freight cars from card

[ERIE RR]

Work has continued on the rolling stock, as the pulpwood flats are now assembled and - along with the box car - have been given a coat of shellac.

Here are some pictures of the flats just after construction was finished. Once all the wagons are painted and the trucks added, I'll be giving them further detailing - wire handrails, ladders, brake wheels, etc.

Whilst waiting for the shellac to dry I've also started working on turning a Life-Like (I think) GP-30 in CB&Q colours into a CSX road slug. Photo of the basic progress at the bottom of this post.

Let me know what you think.

The RED and Gray loco you show is a ARNOLD GP30 possibly from ARNOLD's 1980's run .
