Good morning from partly cloudy, foggy and cool Northeast Ohio! Managed to finish up a couple of cars this week! Athearn 2970CF ACF Covered Hopper used mainly for cement and sand service. Car was painted with Scalecoat II UP Covered Hopper Gray and lettered with Herald King Decals. Next is an Atlas ACF 60' SD Precesion Design Boxcar kit, painted with Scalecoat II Boxcar Red and Silver Paints, then lettered with Oddballs Decals. Car was mainly used in the Autoparts service, mainly with GM and Chrysler as Ford preferred the plug door boxcars. Picture of my Bowser GMDD SD40-2's with a string of the Canadian Wheat Board Covered Hoppers, have a couple of more of these cars to finish up, with more to do as I have a lot of decals for these cars. Thanks for looking! Rick Jesionowski
If this week's topic is fire stations and fire trucks..... Sad news this morning out of Davidsville; our brave firefighters struggling to control an early morning blaze at the local IRS offices. Would anyone here like to start a GoFundMe account for the building? The IRS sign is also falling down from the fire and will need to be replaced. So far we have 32 cents donated towards this worthy cause.
Bremner, nice work! Love the TARDIS too... If you're feeling up to a challenge, there's always this: https://flic.kr/p/2hd14My
