Wish they had the PS coal gons as kits. I need a ton for scrap service.
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

@ryan_wilkerson do you have enough of the NSN etched car side extensions?
Yes! I bought 12 on eBay a bit ago and got 12 hoppers from FVM. Now just need to find the right color and decals (or a logo so decals can be made). The plan is to do the SW1 in the same white scheme.

Which Micro Trains trucks/couplers are used on the 62' beer cars? Before I order the wrong thing, is the 1038 Barber roller bearing trucks with long extension?
The fabric of reality has begun to fray.

Yes, that's what the original red caboose cars came with...

The long, or Medium Plus??

Long is Autoracks/90' Flat Cars
Medium is 50' boxcars with cushion draftgear.
Medium plus is 60' boxcars like the Atlas model.. and I think it also covers Con-Cor 86' Autoparts cars and Con-Cor Autoracks.

Long extention... And I remember using the long extension on concor auto racks and boxcars.

Were the medium plus the trucks that were used on the Micro-trains 60' boxcars?

The long extensions always stuck out a bit from the Autoracks (because Con-Cor put the bolster in the wrong spot)

I dont recall if the medium plus was in responce for the Con-Cor Long truck, or if it had a MT release behind it..  MT 60' boxcars?
