Here's a recently completed Moloco car, representing a relatively fresh RI repaint. I wanted to make sure I didn't overdo the weathering.

I ordered one of the new Accurail 2970 hoppers in the data only scheme and it arrived this week. I replaced the trucks with some leftover from an Atlas Pressureaide hopper. I also thinned out the ladder rungs and used Tamiya Panel Line Accent to darken the running boards. Ran out of time to apply the initials and numbers before I had to leave. Maybe next time.

Here it is next to an Athearn 2970:

Working on scratchbuilding a bridge got a ways to go yet also a lot of scenery work to go a swamp with tall grass and reeds will be in the foreground plus many more trees and brush.
