I'll confess: I had to go look up Charlie Noble, but now I know.Being part of a Narrow minded group (Narrow Gauge) Someone was looking for a 4 wheel D&RGW Caboose. I asked and someone furnished drawings and a day and a half later, "Viola": View attachment 177551Here she is sitting on a flatcar with a WP&YR Shovelnose streaking past on the main line. The floor is a separate piece. Unusually on top is a light with a Charlie Noble on top for cooling.
I do have to commend you, or whoever built the 3D file for the two wood "window close-holders" (not sure how to describe them formally) found on the upper right corner of the right-most cupola window, and on the lower right frame of the center window on the main car body. I thought the upper one was a 3D artifact or dust problem until I saw the lower one and realized it was not.
The detail just below the roof edge between the two windows--long oval shape. It looks like something you might find on the dash of a fifties Ford or Chevy...what the heck IS that? Just a special (cast perhaps) detail?
The whole caboose is really neat. I don't recall the CN atop the cupola on the D&RGW beese, but it's otherwise very, very good.
