Hi Brian,


They're the composite gons built by Standard Steel in 1923. Last ones seem to FINALLY drop off the N&W roster some time in the mid-1980s.

Chad I may have missed these but what NKP series are these 70000-70499? If so do you have the NKPHTS article on them?

Jerry was working on them but I havent herd from him in a while. I am going to use the scrap box and some Microscale letters for the L&N and Microscale MC-4243 NKP Cabooses decale sheet has the small "NICKEL PLATE ROAD".

Who is preparing the decals for these cars and what colors were they painted? I checked my sources and found nothing on either the gons or the flat cars.
However, I did complete (weights to be added tomorrow) 9 of Chad’s Great Northern flat cars and they are really well done.
