| My two newer additions to the WRD fleet are seen waiting to be picked up off the main once the creamery is switched. |

| This NYS&W is kit number 5051. |

| Ready to go to work on the WRD. The Kadee trip pin has been removed. The cars both got a bit of PanPastel weathering followed by a thin overcoat of Floquil grimy black sprayed on. Both cars load and empty got a light dusting of coarse coal dust from PanPastel. |

| A very nice car built by Bob Bowes. |
What kit is the NH horizontal rib hopper? And I don't think I've ever seen any information on New Haven cars of that type, do you have photos, drawings, etc. regarding that class? Very cool.
ReplyDeleteHi Randy:
ReplyDeleteI purchased the NH car already built. The seller had purchased it and did not do anything with it (some parts broken). He mentioned that he was told it was a F&C kit when he purchased it. I did not see it on their web site although the other model seen above is on the site. It clearly is a resin kit and an early era car. I had to do some minor repairs to it before being added to the hopper fleet. I went through my material on the NH and could not find any reference to it. If I come across the history of the car I will be posting it...cheers...George
