Ron, The KATY would be to the right, dropping down south as it came off the bridge. The MP/MKT interchange would be to the south. JErry
Bud MossParticipantThis is looking southwest. The wye for the Boonville Branch has the local on it. The River sub mainline in in the front. Jerry Michels
Bud MossParticipantCharlie, is X4378 one of the Howe boxcars? It sure looks like one. With some windows added, the old Westerfield resin kit would sure make a great model. Jerry Michels
Bud MossParticipantThe MP did use old steam tenders in MOW service, even in the steam era. Jerry
Bud MossParticipantYou are right Charlie, MODX was MoPac and WADX was Wabash. Jerry
Bud MossParticipantHi Folks, I get the digest on a daily basis, and in that email, the posts are listed by number. Is there a way to search for a specific post by number? For instance Charlie posted the photo of the Missourian, number 3285. Can I jump to that quickly? Thanks.
JerryBud MossParticipantThis does seem to be unusual. I cannot remember seeing any stations with this sign. It might ahve been a local thing, but it is a steel sign which cost someone something!

Bud MossParticipantThis is an excellent film, but I wish two things. That the filmmaker was on the sunny side of the trains and that the film was in better focus. Anyway, regarding the single herald ART reefer at 21:04 in the film, this is rather important. Few if any in-service photos of this paint scheme exist. In fact, it was unknown, until I saw this film, if the scheme actually existed except for a builder’s photo. Note that the buzzsaw is rimmed in blue. This scheme only lasted a year or so before the “Classic Scheme” with both heralds was implemented. Nice, nice find.

Bud MossParticipantHmmm, curious that we don’t have them.
Bud MossParticipantWith good plans, I am sure Shapeways could do these. Jerry
Bud MossParticipantI am just getting back to speed on the forum, and am sad to read about Lee’s passing. He was a great fellow. I had many interesting conversations with him, and he was always up on the very latest tips and techniques for his modeling. I learned a lot from him.
Charlie, I have no doubt Lee and Joe have “visited” a number of times!
Jerry Michels
Bud MossParticipantI know Joe Collias had molds for the doghouses. I purchased one from him many years ago. Wonder if they are still around?
