Weekend Update - 9/5/2010

The H Liners are Atlas mechanisms in Kaslo shells assembled and painted by Jeff Briggs of Briggs Models in Victoria BC.  Jeff was the designer and fabricator of the molds and is an amazing craftsman.  The units run super smoooooooothly and are my pride and joy.  I will soon have 10 of them bringing my FM total to 20 units allowing me to run pretty close to the prototype mix of models and paint schemes for 1970.  Now if only some one will bring out a decent running, DCC-ready S4! (not to start that thread again  )

I figured you would be using the correct bodies on them. If only I could find more of Jeff's Dofasco truck kits...

For any interested, here is another shot of Jeff's work on both a Kaslo kit H Liner and caboose.  The scene is the Slocan City rail barge slip.  The train is finishing loading itself on to the barge for the trip to Rosebery/Nakusp.
