Well, this past week and into the next couple weeks (or however long it takes me) I have been working on decaling 12 Trinity 2-bay cement hoppers for my modern-day New York Central System.
The cars represent former private-owned cars that were purchased by the NYCS, and the reporting marks are now "patched over" and the Central's logo applied to the car.
This is a big project, working on 12 cars simultaneously.
Sneak peek at what the cars will look like:
The cars are still in the glosscote stage, next I gotta weather them and apply Kadees...
Lots of wonderful & great equipment here. If this works, this is my EJ&E coal train on a friends layout. No dubbed in sound, what you hear is us guys in the backround. In the video, you'll see locomotives 656(OMI Brass SD38-3) 667(custom Athearn SD38-2) 701(stock Athearn GP38-2) and 304 (stock Athearn SW-7) pulling 35 mty McKean BN 12 panel 100T coal hoppers. The caboose is a stock Athearn steel cupola, painted and lettered into the EJ&E #504. Hope you enjoy!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpVCgtz9VEs
Yowy! I'm late getting over here to take a look, but so glad I did. You guys have some very good photos for the WPF and I have enjoyed seeing them all.
Keep up the fine work...it keeps me motivated.
