I dig the CSX caboose but it looks like they forgot to color the steps yellow.

Which ever side of the track I am on is the right side.

Joe,
Heads up, your web guy has the wrong description on the CP car's page and put the Koppers Coke description instead.


I may pick up the CP car as they are frequently seen up here in Rigby yard in paper service....although weathered to hell

Yes... I'm in N... Also HO and 1:1

Is that Koppers gon a new car body style or is it the container load that's new? If the former, where can I see decent photos of the model? It might work for another car I am thinking of, depending on the brake wheel/ratchet set-up...

Joe,

Are the scale test cars available undecorated? I didn't see them on your site. I would prefer one painted in Milwaukee Road colors. However if poor sales are slowing additional schemes, I could use an undec.

BTW, thanks for your participation in this forum. You have provide some very useful information and it seems like people enjoy having someone who will listen to their ideas/concerns. How thick is your skin by now? :)

Best wishes, Dave
If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
