Since I took the plunge over on Slugs and Bugs I figured I would put my two cents in here. This is a flatcar based on info I got from Tom Daspit's site http://www.garlic.com/~tomd/. If you are into BIG flats and Schnabel cars this is the place. I based this loosely on a GE car, I don't recall the number. The A & B ends are cut down Athearn Heavy Duty Flats. The rest is sheet plastic. This was about a three evening project as I had partially dismantled my layout at that time. The load is a 1/24th scale transformer with a Lionel can glued to the bottom. It runs very well but you can't have much along the right away as it tends to act like a lawn mower......Rich
