I let the Tamiya primer dry overnight and sprayed the carbody with a mix of Tru-Color Jenks Blue, Eagle Gray and white to get a faded blue as the cars appeared in freight service in the mid1970’s. Will let this dry 24 hours and them spray the roof and doors aluminum. The Kadee No. 29 couplers arrived today so they and the trucks were added using a 1/4″ drill bit, tap and screws. Car was weighted to 6 ounces.
