    Well I been hanging around here long enough without posting any pictures of my N scale work so here goes this is a kitbash of a model I did, I saw this model in brass HO done by Railway classics and also found another picture of this model version scratch built in O scale I could not find any proto pictures so I used these models as my reference and wanted one so this is what I ended up with

    I have had this project on my workbench for at least two years with no progress. Great Job!! Maybe I'll get my butt in gear and do it now that I have some inspiration.

    I have seen cars like these on various railroads. The Carson & Colorado had a narrow gauge one exactly like it.

    Often known as Drovers cars, there were bunks for cowboys to sleep as they rode with their stock to market. I am sure they were used for other purposes too.
