| This
model was scratchbashed. Except for the side panels, rescued from
a Tyco reefer, and the MDC metal underframe, this model is all scratch
built from styrene and some detail parts on the end panels and
underframe.
Greg painted and decaled the model, then added the aging and weathering
with his airbrush. This model has been displayed at many RPM meets across the country, and was featured in an article in Manline Modeler. |

Ends: scribed
styrene sheet, ladder castings, and Nut-Bolt-Washer castings with brake
