Could you modify one of our 50' underframes to work?
Ok, so the location of the bolster would be different I guess. If you need something to test, let me know.
The plastic insert will work fine, but I'll still need to find bolsters. I'm not up to cutting the metal bolsters off the underframe.
doesn't intermountain cast the walls and the floor as one part? they don't really havean underframe like micro train or other brands, unless you just mean the brake rod detailswhich you could live without?
I found years ago that a 3/32 inch bolster was perfect, which is 0.093 inches. One can't do that with Evergreen, so 0.090 or 0.095 are the easiest to do. Any combination of strips that add up to that will work. For instance, if you want the thicker bolster, but don't have 0.005 sheet, you can use 0.020 + 0.015 strip.
