Just finished this C of G (P:48) to submit for NMRA Merit Award. Its a double wall, wood frame, ventilated car that was found in the 1902 The Railway Age publication. A fun project to build and it did receive MA at 103 points.
The latest scratch built - tank car and flat car. Plans from Car Builders Dictionary and Railway Age - circa 1910.
The tank car is from 1 1/4" PVC pipe and basswood. Flat car from sheet styrene, angle and channel. Will add a farm-equipment box when I get lettering for it. Seeking Merit Award for Cars.
