I managed to get a couple of cars done this week.



P&LE 50' Boxcar, used a Branchline 50' AAR Boxcar, with a 10' Door from the scrapbox, also added Moloco EOC Cushion Draft Gear Boxes and A-Line Sill steps. Painted with Floquil Jade Green Paint and lettered with Highball Graphics decals. Prototype was equipped with a Spartan Easy Loader Equipment for securing loads and used in general service.



Exactrail PS 4427CF Covered Hopper Kit, painted with B&M Blue Paint and lettered with Oddballs Decals. This was one of 30 cars in a lot for grain service in the midwest, Louis Dreyfuss purchased many lots of these cars and they had many different paint schemes.

Thanks for looking!

GP40-2's, 3130 and 3129 are actually too new for my timeline, they are however my fave variant of this model. 3123 is the typical.
