Weathered and finished my first Moloco Brainerd NP 50' double door.   The car was restenciled to 55 tons, reweighed with a 1967 date, repacked, ACI label added, route card, and chalk marks. Weathering is dry brushing, Tamiya wash, and airbrush to bring it into my 1969 modeling era. Tim VanMersbergen |

Better late than never, 3d printed Mark I tamper from Silver Spike Designs. WOW!! I looked at the website. WOW!! Silver Spike DesignsThose of you on trainorders remember the video posted about a week ago of a complete rail gang and their machines at work. It looks like all the rail equipment is available here. My biggest surprise is that the prices seem to me to be reasonable for these machines. A generational improvement from the venerable Custom Finishes track maintenance machinery. My question - how was the assembly of the kit? I've made Custom Finishes kits, and they need a lot of work. |

My question - how was the assembly of the kit? I've made Custom Finishes kits, and they need a lot of work. Oh yeah, nowhere near that level of work. It comes as 5 pieces. I added a ton of detail, but if you wanted to build it stock, it's just paint and snap the wheels in.  20240719_184116 by cr9617, on Flickr |
