I like the weathering on those Ken, especially the first two. Send me a PM sometime and let me know what's been up with you lately. Chris

My COTW is a kitbash that I'm working on. It's a Santa Fe transition car made from Athearn baggage and observation cars. I made it to go with a set of Fleischmann hi-levels. It still needs decals and an antenna.

I built these up from old Roundhouse/MDC kits. NYC sleeper, combine, and RPO.

This is my COTW:

Back in 2005, I purchased a large portion of a very large collection from the Philly area that was listed on eBay. I still have many of the pieces from this collection because most were extremely well though out and detailed. Just this past week, I had another car show up that arrived from Texas. It just so happens to have been a part of this very same collection. I posted pictures of the car earlier this week as it was presented in the eBay listing. Last night, before leaving work, I spent about half an hour piecing it back together. I then took it home and took these pictures.

The detail applied is incredible:

There are medic boxes, fire extinguishers, nude pin-up model posters and several other fine details as can be seen below:













Any comments most definitely welcome!

Lots of unique cars to see, excitingly exclusive! Your Sea-Land flat looks factory new, walt and MnT's Way cool Way-car is the biz. Am loving the pin-ups!


Not rare or customized but a bit unusual is my favourite car from my BN Christmas set, a Model Power Citi Service twin tank car featuring removable tanks. That is, I hope they're removable else I broke them off fitting the trucks with metal wheels!
