Union Pacific welded underframe parts set (for Trix B-50-24/27 and[snip] UP B-50-24/27 box car decalsAre the Trix and Marklin B-50-24/27 the same? I bought two of the Marklin models with the Be Specific with large UNION PACIFIC lettering when they first came out and would certainly use the above parts and decals to upgrade/backdate them. Problem is, I was unable to strip the one Marklin I tried using any paint stripper on hand. (Brake fluid, Chameleon, Scalecoat, all with ultrasonic, alcohol without ultrasonic.) I finally tried a light, low-angle grit blast, but that removed the rivets as well as the paint. So now I have one. Any ideas?? Tom Madden |
