I recently decided that I really need some B&O boxcars. Tacked onto that project is a C&O 40-footer rebuilt by CFC, which so far is the only one I've finished. The color guide has no end shots, and I didn't pay close enough attention to what was visible, but have since learned that the ends should be a funky 5/5 with a top corrugation that's less than full width (originally a CB&Q car.) Oh well. I still need to add rivets to the sill but it's otherwise ready for paint.   |

Mark, excellent stinky Alco! Now all we need is an RSD12 to run with the RSD15's.

Be nice if an RSD12 was offered in plastic some day! I'm sure whatever you cob together will look excellent!

Pretty doubtful on the plastic, not a lot of owners, and no big selling road names so it'd never pay.

There is still a Utah version not yet done in plastic (ex ATSF) of the RSD15.

I don't know, Pennsy, Nickle Plate, Southern Pacific and Chesapeake & Ohio (some transferred to the B&O) are large buyers in the train market, and there were 171 built, we had the C-430 with only 13 examples ever made. The Utah's were ex-C&O/B&O Rick Jesionowski |

On the GP39-2 I used the Cal-Scale part, on the SD45 I assume John Bezuyen used a piece of styrene.

Did you get a new flag or is it maybe just the camera angle? It looks 1000% better. |
