White River Division

Welcome, follow along with George Dutka in his journal which documents the additions and future thoughts for the HO scale White River Division model railroad and to his continuing historical New England railroad research. The White River Division is now in its 17th modeler's season. The "modeler's season" runs from November to April each year. Inspiration comes from the Boston and Maine, Rutland and Central Vermont Railway during the 1950's with additional posts by Don Janes and Peter Mumby.

Air Slide Models - Part 4

A trio of air slide hoppers is seen on the White River Division.

Here is a look at a few more of my air slide hoppers...enjoy...George Dutka

I had purchased this air slide already built this year at a local train show. I applied a bit of acrylic rust and coated it with PanPastels.

I also picked up this car at the Woodstock train show. It needed some gluing, minimal rust spots added and some gray PanPastel weathering. I now have a good size collection of these cars for use when required.

Great job on the airslides !
Curious about the D&H cvd hopper in photo 2.
Is that from a kit or a paint/decal job ?
Thanx,
KLS

The D&H covered hopper was a car I picked up years ago, I think I assembled it but not sure. It was factory painted. I forget the manufacturer...George
