Shipping is now underway for our first special run car. Once they arrive, we would love to see pictures on your layout, or anyplace that you can take a photo. So, show us your special run cars! Charlie
Here is Mine On the shelf above my desk. It will probably stay where it is...as I think it will become lost among all my other freight cars on the layout. It doesnt say Trainboard on it so it pretty much looks like any other freight car in Lucky Penny Yard :-(
It's not hermetically sealed so I am sure there is no 'factory air' in there...LOL But no...havent opened it ;-)
Maine air...I hear it smells like musty wet cat....no thanxs ! Maybe I should get some silicone and seal the edges of the lid...LMAO !!!
I received my Special Run car today. It looks great! I posted these photos in the "Announcement" thread as well. - Jeff
To each his own - I happen to like it. Those butt-ugly red trucks are the ones that drive me up a wall!
You two are saying the same thing, and I agree. The truck color is bad. Not terribly difficult to change, but I would have preferred black. I like everything else, however. - Jeff
I am also looking forward to seeing pictures of the cars in a train somewhere interesting on your layouts.
I don't mind the truck color. I paint them a deep grunge color anyway. This is going to be neat to compare mine with one I made from decals a long time ago.
Changing the color of your trucks will just make car worth more to who ever gets all my stuff when my life has ended many years from now I hope.
