My Attempt at Weathering w/ powders

My guess on both the Enjay and Pillsbury car would be Athearn.The easiest way to tell is look at the coupler boxes if the cars are Athearn there will be metal clips that lock over ears on either side of the box.

Actually I think i found out that one of them is a Walthers.

I don't know if it is still true but years ago I went to the local UPS depot to pick up a package. The truck with the package was still out on it's route so the manager gave me a tour and talked about the business.

Back then they washed the trucks every day when they came back to the depot for the night.

I like to think the workers on my railroad are just as fussy - so my cars are all quite clean, thank you. <g>
