    Here are two more slides that I re-scanned from the NMRA national convention in St. Louis in the summer of 2001.
    A Texas & New Orleans maintenance of way train is blocking Ulrich Street on my Sugar Land NTRAK modules. The Imperial Cotton Gin is in the back ground.

    Managed to get some cars done this week!

    [​IMG]

    I managed to finish the sixth car in the series of Tichy Anderson's quasi covered hoppers this week, normally I would say I have 4 to go, but I acquired another one so I still have 5 to finish. Car painted with Model Master's Aluminum Paint with a tint of Green Paint and Reading Green on the Extension. Decals were included with the kit.

    Con-Cor 60' Greenville Auto Parts Car, kit built without any modifications as the MP cars were the short (41') wheelbase. Car was assigned to the Detroit and Toledo Shoreline to the Monroe Bumper Plant for Ford. Car Painted with Scalecoat II Boxcar Red and Floquil Platinum Mist Paints and lettered with Oddballs Decals.

    Another 60' Greenville Boxcar Kit, but this time I removed the rivit detail and changed the wheelbase to 46' to match the ACF Cars acquired by the SP for Ford Service in the Milpitas Pool. Car painted with Scalecoat II Boxcar Red and lettered with Herald King and Walther's Decals.

    Thanks for looking!
