When is the Q express car expected?  I have always thought these cars were cool.

Is this where we beg for a C&NW "400" observation? The Des Plaines kits always seemed so lonely without one...

I just finished the master today. Hopefully I can pour the rubber mold this week and start casting next week. So probably late this month.

No C&NW obs planned at this time though I could use one also.

Looking at the CB&Q Havelock baggage car...could use it for BN 227, only BN "business" car that wasn't named.

Finished the first shell out of the mold for a Burlington Express Box Car. They should be available later this week.



The raw shell is molded in a bright white urethane plastic but was painted in primer to show up better in photographs.

Nice Bill.  That would look right at home on one of my PRR mail and express trains.
