Andy Carlson
Hello- I have been preparing a return to offering a select few resin HO box cars. The tooling for this HO box car was made over 20 years ago. I have enough parts for two of these WP box cars. The buyer will get the following parts for two cars: 4 SS sides 2 plain ends 2 ends with lumber doors 2 roofs (Newly re-tooled to correct drawing errors) Several roof support cross ties 2 underframes 2 sets of underframe cross members and cross ties The sides will need to be warmed up to correct a slight inward curvature Because of the sides I am reducing the price for these 2 cars. Purchase both cars with shipping for $85.00 No paint, decals, trucks brake equipment are included. I have just the two to be offered and are sold as a pair. I accept checks or money orders. With a small fee I accept PayPal. Contact me at <midcentury@...> of list please.

I've used it for many years to do things like gluing windows in rail cars. Works like any white glue, but flows great and doesn't show where it hit the "glass".

Weathering interiors
Gatwood, Elden J SAD
Group;
And more, note how different cars of the same RR and class looked. The end result in that your cars should look different. Especially hoppers and gondolas.
That bluish cast in that H21A is real. I remember that very well from my years crawling around inside these cars. It is not just the last load they carried, it was the abrasion down to bare steel.
We could engage in endless speculation, but this is the proof.

Re: Question about weathering
Tony Thompson
I have a fairly extensive and well illustrated description of using acrylic washes, in what are called "Reference pages" on my blog. They are found in the upper right corner of each blog post. Here is a link to Part 1, which is the basics (there is also a Part 2 with more advanced and more detailed aspects):
I continue to rely primarily on this method, with assists from artist's color pencils and Pan-Pastels for added effects.

Re: Using Pledge (Future)
Ken, I have been using Pledge for about 30 years as my gloss coat prior to decaling. It works well with acrylic paints and makes decaling a breeze. Some times it might show a muddiness in the target area but it will go away. Much like white glue turns clear. I have a nickel plated Oriental Twin Cities Zephyr and 2 E-7s that I used it on and the finish has never cracked or failed. You can even cut the Future with a little Silver to tone down the shiny plating as shown in an old Mainline Modeler article by Bob Kosic. He didn't use Future, I did. Another use is to attach Photo Etch parts by using a small artist watercolor brush. It worked great on my Genesis Farr air filter grills. It is an acrylic product and has some flexibility, unlike ACC. Use full strength in your airbrush and don't lay it on too thick as it will run. If you notice this, take it to the sink and scrub the model with a toothbrush and Windex. So yes, no thinning required. The military guys say you can add Talcum to it to make your own Flat finish. I haven't tried that. Sincerely, Rob Manley

Re: Question about weathering
Ray, Ten years ago I was on a mission to find the ultimate weathering product. I liked chalks but didn't like the vanishing act they perform when overcoated with a flat finish. By the way my favorite Flats are Scalecoat, Model Master and......Windsor Newton Galleria Acrylic Flat in the 8oz. bottle for about $8.00. At Blick art store I walked into this PanPastel display. I was intrigued by their Oxide Red color and about 6 others. Bev would only let me buy one because she knew I had tried powders, chalks and others with little happiness. Unlike other modelers I picked up my Central Valley NP stock car, not a Bluebox boxcar, and attacked the roof. It was everything I wanted. easy application and professional looking color. The only weathering product I know of that is forgiving and mostly removable is Pan Pastel. I say "mostly" because White painted models will show a ghost of the color when removed. Pan Pastel is a high grade Artist product made of mostly pigment with a binder added, 96 colors plus a "Colorless Blender" that allows you to tone down the color to more of a tint. You need a good Flat finish on the model first and can apply with their SofftTools applicators, Micro-Brushes or artist oil brushes for tight spaces. I have been doing RPM clinics on these for years and also have a Blog on their website for us modelers. Modelingcolors.com There are quite a few and at the bottom of the pages is a note to click on for more. Pan Pastel is also usable likw a water based product. You can apply to wood and use as a stain. It mixes well with watercolor pencils like the Derwent brand. Honestly, it's the only thing I use now. My airbrush is only for painting and flat finishing. You have the option of using a Flat to protect the Pan Pastels from heavy handling or not. I stopped using an overcoat and I am always taking y rolling stock in and out of my A-Line carrying trays. I haven't noticed any significant loss of color. When applying the color you should put some pressure on the applicator, that helps it bond to the surface. Thank you for allowing me to share this. Attached is a Rock Island B-unit that I matched to a fodo from Fallenflags.com The CB&Q gondola is a mandatory freight car WIP content. This shows how to use Pan Pastel as a stain. Sincerely, Rob Manley

Re: Proto 2000 Stock Car
Ray Breyer
Hi Rich, Lots of reasearch. I'm currently looking at the Mather fleet from 1880 on, and am slowly compiling data (slowly, since their company records don't exist. I'm having to read basically every page from every ORER and trade magazine looking for clues. Once that's done I'll read through all of the ICC Val Reports. MCBA, ARA, and ICC reports are also being waded through). Richard's pieces on the Mather fleet really don't start until WWII; I'm focusing on what happened before that. As the third largest private car fleet, Mather deserves a real examination. Once done, I'll probably "publish" on Eric Hansmann's blog. Ray Breyer Elgin, IL

Yes and no. Those original 40 foot Mather stock cars were stretched 36-footers, which they had too many of and which nobody wanted to lease. They started stretching them around 1928, but forgot that the center sills were a bit small (6" C channel, IIRC). They tended to sag a little too much, so Mather added two trussrods along the center sill to strengthen it (traditionally, trussrods are used to hold an all-wood BODY together, not a steel frame).
By the early Depression years the stretched cars, and the newly built 40-footers, had a stronger underframe, and the trussrods were eliminated. I have a few photos of WWII-era Mather cars that still have the rods, mostly on long term lease C&NW cars.

Hi Guys,
Thought you'd like to se my MP auto car I just finished this weekend. I used Ted's decal set and the model turned out pretty well. It has a few problems, namely the door tracks are completely prototypical, and I left in the lumber door in the A end. Also I need to swap out the trucks with TMW spring-plankless type. I'll do an extensive write-up on my blog soon. John Golden

Re: Question about weathering
Benjamin Hom
My two cents: 1. Richard Hendrickson's article "Vintage Dating Freight Cars" in the December 1995 issue of Railmodel Journal is required reading, not for specific weathering techniques, but the importance of context in capturing the overall scene on your layout. The article is available online at http://magazine.trainlife.com/rmj_1995_12/ . (Go to page 32.) In Richard's words, "Freight car fleets keep evolving. Older cars are retired, modernized, rebuiIt and/or renumbered. New cars are delivered. New paint and lettering schemes are introduced and gradually replace earlier ones. The process is endless, not only on the prototype railroad you're modeling but on the other lines whose cars turn up on your railroad in interchange service. Making your freight car models realistic, then, isn't enough; not only should each car represent its prototype accurately but all your cars should look the way their prototypes did at the same moment in time." Just as having a fleet of brand new cars is unrealistic, having an entire fleet weathered to the brink of extinction is also unrealistic. (The most notorious example of this is a heavily weathered Athearn Santa Fe "Shock Control" boxcar that turned up regularly in photos of Sellios' Franklin & South Manchester.) 2. Weathering from memory is tough as what you initially think is credible weathering turns out to be atypical or odd. (An example is the Ertl boxcars and gon "flood recovery" weathering.) Keep color photos handy for inspiration - an excellent source is the Library of Congress Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information Colllection. These are often misidentified on these lists as from "Shorpy" or "Collection of Shorpy", but the reality is these are in the public domain and available online, and the collection is far more extensive than what is posted on that blog.

Re: Using Pledge
I hand brush Pledge as the self leveling action of the product does not require an air brush (which I can't use anyway.) I cover just the larger area the decal will go on such as the whole side of a car but not the roof. I don't feel I need to cover areas such as car roofs or underframe where no decals will be applied. Use a clean soft very fine bristle art brush to apply pledge. I clean the brushes with IPA and water immediately after use.
After decaling I spray with a rattle can Tamiya matte finish. -- Ken Adams Still in splendid Shelter In Place solitude, about half way up Walnut Creek

Ray,
GO FOR IT! It can be daunting to take a nice model and feel like you might ruin it. In chemistry terms, it has a “high activation energy”, but the rewards are many and the risks actually few. Some suggestions beyond what others have posted.
1) Start with Chalks. If you use plain chalks, they are easy to wash off. In addition, when you clear coat, they get much less intense. Chalks with adhesive, such as Bragdon’s or the ones I use, Doc O’Brien's Weathering Powders (Micro Mark https://www.micromark.com/Doc-ObrienS-Powders) are a little harder to remove but will come off too.
2) I’m a little crazy, but my 1st weathering attempt was a P2K PRR HH1 (N&W Y-3) 2-8-8-2. Weathering a $400 locomotive is enough to keep you focused! You might want to work on a freight car 1st ;)
3) Acrylic washes are also easy to work with. I do them over acrylics, so I have to be careful when removing. The most common approach is something Jim Six called “Q-Tip weathering”. Easy-peasy! Take a nice thin grunge wash, and brush it on the car side. Now, using a cotton swap (e.g. Q-tip), gently stoke down the side of the car, removing most of the paint. Keep changing swabs to keep removing paint. What is left will be in the shadow of rivets, seams, etc. Do one half of one side at at time. Let dry and admire (then add chalk marks…)
Now, there was the time I got too heavy handed and airbrushed an all over “wash” on a RC express X29 (for the complete grunge covered look) and it totally sucked (too much paint, blotching, “flowering”, etc). So I literally poured 90% isopropanol on the car side and started scrubbing with Q-tips. The wash sort of came off, as did some of the lettering. It actually looked beat-to-hell great! Then it dried with a white filmy look (UGH!). Thinking back to advice here, I wondered if a clear coat would get rid of the haze (I’m tempted to call it an “alcohol haze” but then folks might comment on my drinking habits!). Rescued. Now this is one of my favorite weathering jobs… happened 100% by accident. Which leads to #4
4) Make lemonade out of lemons. Did you totally screw it up? Fine! Strip the car, repaint, decal, and do it again. Or maybe too much weathering? Gently remove the acrylic wash with isopropanol and a Q-tip. Not enough weathering? That the easy one, just add more! ;)
5) As Jim Betz noted and as I have presented. Weathering is due to the action of nature and man on machine. Think about all the sources of weathering (not just rain, but road dust, other cars, mishandling, etc…) and how the job of that particular piece of equipment affects its weathering (My next “EXTREME weathering project will be a Jordan spreader)
6) Finally, it isn’t necessary to make every car a work of art. Here are two quick “fleet weathering approaches”. These can be chalk or acrylic washes Boxcar - Fade the sides - lightly cover with a thinned color that is the same or a lighter version of the body color - Fade the trucks - grit blast the side frames (protect the bearings with tape) - Fade the underbody - a light coat of grimy or faded black, or darkish grime colors so show road dirt - Fade the roof - a light coat of grimy or faded black to mimic the soot of the steam era Tank car (black) - overall fade with tarnished black (remember, if it is dark, make it lighter!) - grimy or oily black around and under the dome (oil drips) - fade the trucks - thin rust wash next to the tank bands (to simulate their slipping as the tank expands and contracts)
Weathering is a nearly endless subject, with so many cool approaches. I typically use 2 to 3 different approaches, including washes, chalk, and airbrush to weather an individual car. For example, there are metallic paints that can then be oxidized to generate REAL rust finishes, or real copper. The more layers of weathering, the more realistic it looks. Military modelers have a LOT of great ideas and have been doing this a long time. One recent You-Tube video of a German tank build included something ridiculous like 80 HOURS of weathering! But don’t panic, 20-30 minutes can get you a lot of nice effects too!

Re: [Non-DoD Source] Re: [RealSTMFC] Question about weathering
Gatwood, Elden J SAD
Guys;
I agree with everything you all have said, and only add that I go slowly, and look at the results of each step before moving on.
The attached are examples of different processes, to get where I want them. Each one used a different process.
I think they look a bit garish close up, but that is not what I want the final product to achieve. I want them to look right in a train, or on a siding, on my layout.
My favorite techniques are: beginning washes, often with tube oils like brown/burnt umber/dark grey, to make rivets and junctures pop, then light dry-brushing of rivet heads and details, sometimes chalk or lighter or darker base color rubbing if the prototype looks like that, potential board by board coloring, and a final blending coat of lighter or darker base color by airbrush.
I have always found weathering to be intimidating, but so important. IMO, a “finished” model without weathering, looks like a toy, not a small version of the prototype.
There is a lot of disagreement on this subject. I have had more than one person say to me, “I can’t understand how you could ruin a perfectly good model like that!” It is obviously the eye of the beholder.
Finally, I use my grit-blaster to remove weathering if I hate the end result. It works really well, if you go slowly and evaluate the results as you go along.
