Weekend Update 11/26/23

I spent some time over the last 2 weeks turning this HO BLI PRR M1b



Into this




Long story short, son "weathered" this locomotive (only 1 side), a few years ago.  Been forgotten, son now in the military and dad wanted it restored for Christmas.  A few hours, Q tips and 91% alcohol got 98% of the rust solution off, rest was taken care of with the airbrush.

And here I thought a decoder exploded all over it. Nice restoration.

I thought someone left it at the bottom of a lake and fished it out!   

But great job in the restoration!
