    Good morning from sunny and warm Northeast Ohio!


    Here is the one car I got done this week, a Tangent Sam Rae Shops 4600CF Covered Hopper kit, I purchased two of the decorated cars, but as I had a couple of decal sets for the car I went with the undecorated kit also. As the LV was under PRR/PC control they purchased these at a better price than from an established car builder like PS or ACF.

    Last Saturday went to the club with my Rapido FA-2's along with a bunch of my PRR Hopper cars of various classes.

    Yeah, so the pipe load is a little large for the 18 wheeler, not even sure it is an 18 wheeler, but it looks really cool, to me :) Another one behind it! Kind of dig how it is in focus and items in front are not, just saying! I think the LED light fell down in the fueling area? Those are the pipes I just painted with the Rechargeable Airbrush, me likes. Got the WS traffic lights in the picture too, really like them too.

    You will notice all the River Point N Scale trucks in my photo above. I am addicted to these things, and still have more in their brand new packages, and thinking about buying more. They keep lowering the Clearance prices and I can't resist for some reason. If you can't tell, I really, really, like the RPS vehicles :)

    I finally got around to testing this one. It has been sitting unopened since I got at the Greenberg Show from January.
    New Haven PA1 (Rapido) arrives at the station as a trailer train passes.

    And you left that beauty in the box since January? Poor little engine...;)

    But I have to say that Rapido really nailed it, especially for N scale. That is a real beauty (I wouldn't mind going out on a date with her...:love: ).

    Finished with what I call my "three little pigs", the three-car MOW set:
    IMGP4520A.PNG

    Leading is a Bachmann Spectrum 44-tonner CN 1, one of the two original 44-ton GE's purchased in the late 1940s for the Prince Edward Island's Murray Harbor sub, where bridge loading restrictions ruled out anything heavier.
