IPS crane (Ohio and American locomotive cranes) splits and ships all its new and rebuilt cranes on flatbed rail cars. Not exactly sure why but I assume its either for high speed travel reasons or insurance reasons or regulation reasons. Thought it would make an interesting flatcar load. So I converted one of my kits into one. -Jon
Thanks Larry! That puts a smile on my face as I dont really enjoy airbrushing in Z scale. Its very unforgiving but it seems worth it.
