I've got 2 cars to post this week. The first one is a recently finished Cookie Boxcar for my
Christmas freight train.



This side has the father and daughter gingerbread people and the other side has the
mother and son gingerbread people.

The next one is Santa's personal business car for the passenger Christmas train.





All I have left to do is the Refreshment tank car and the reindeer stock car for the
freight train and both sets are complete.

My car of the week is this box car that I picked up at the Syracuse Train Show this past weekend. It's a Mantua make.

My COTW is a Branchline Pullman Heavyweight that I super-detailed, and lighted!



Spent around 60 hours on this car total.

Nice job. A hobby seems more like a hobby to me if you've put some of yourself into it, and I'd say 60 hours is some and then some.

Love your entries oldtimer. I see that business car uses the same verandah rail as the Pullman Palace-series observation car.
Is the boxcar also MDC Roundhouse?

Yes. I use mostly Roundhouse because of the detail and the ease of assembly and painting. I
also use Tyco/Mantua old time cars for the flats and tankers.
