    Good morning from sunny and mild Northeast Ohio!

    I got a couple of new cars done this week!

    [​IMG]

    First up, is an Athearn ACF 2970 CF Covered Hopper kit, painted with Scalecoat II UP Covered Hopper Gray paint and lettered with Oddballs Decals. The Rock Island ordered cars with trough hatches as the main commodity they were hauling was sand, and these cars were routed through Ottawa, IL for sand loading to many various users.

    An IMRC 12 Panel 10' Inside Height Boxcar kit, painted with Scalecoat II NP Dark Green Paint and lettered with Mask Island Decals. These cars were purchased in 1946 and painted in the EJ&E boxcar red scheme, they were repainted in 1953 in this scheme showing the map around Chicago. They were in general service use for many customers in the Chicago area.

    Thanks for looking!

    Got a couple of shots this week from a 2017 visit to the Durand Union Station Model Railroad Engineers' club layout. This is their model of the former GTW Durand roundhouse, a cast concrete structure built (I think) in 1908. The walls are built up from plaster castings.

    The concrete coaling tower that stood at Durand until just a few years ago is also modeled and is visible at upper right in the second photo.
