Thanks Bill
Still need to add the braking components and the steam line but I wanted to get it painted and decalled just to ensure it would have a decent finish. These were used for styrofoam and hay loading due to having the capacity to haul lighter loads.
Is there any data in our books or CD’s on these cars? The End of Car Cushioning would be of interest.
I would use the Moloco Draft Gear kit for the brake components. Ellcon National…
Finally getting around to doing this car up…might be able to bring it to STL this year.
This car lingers on my bench; along with several other MoPac cars. I saw the recent article in The Eagle of Bill Herbert’s scratch built car. He did a fabulous job on that car.
