David Epling model,
I did CCT 19 starting with an N scale Roundhouse 3 Window Wood caboose. I cut of
the end platform steps and filled in the gaps with Styrene and putty, sanding it
down and then painting. I then added Detail Associates N scale tender Stirrups.
(these are not exact to the prototype, but they are close enough), I then
substituted the stock trucks with Micro-Trains Arch Bar trucks and body mounted
MT couplers. I painted the model based on photos from this website. I added wire
grab irons all around and on the roof. I added window glazing and then pieced
together the decals from my decal parts box. A coat of dull coat over-sprayed on
the model completed the project. This is not a rivet counter model, but it is
close enough.
