Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Todd, yes they are the Mt Vernon built cars of 1947. However, I 'm not in for a sale or trade, I'm so sorry. BTW: Branchline is re-issuing them this spring.
cheers, Fred Jansz

Re: Dullcote
Message 18001: I use Vallejo either Matt (most of the time), Satin (new car, seldom) or Gloss (decals if matt body color was used) or a mix of these finishes over MM, TC or Vallejo paints. Wonderful

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Thank you Ed.
However, Q remains: which other roads had 40' lenght, 10'6" height, 4/4 W corner, 7' doors AAR BC's, built after the war but in service July 1950? Received a reply from a member

Re: Dullcote
Please clarify the 50/50 mix of dullcote and glosscoat product?
Does that give you a “semigloss” or ??? What circumstance do you use it?
Do you also cut this mixture with 50% lacquer

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
I don’t think so, Bill. Try your own link. It goes to the table on the Steam Freight Cars Site, just as you said. But if you look at that table, neither ERIE, Buffalo Creek nor PRR are listed,

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Interesting distinction, Todd, thanks for pointing out that potential explanation. Ed’s list should include that disclaimer, if that’s the case.

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
I wondered about that, too.
It will take some digging, but I am fairly certain that I saw the BCK cars in the Southern Tier of NYS in the 1970s.
I have an Erie-Lackawanna equip book, and Group 7

Re: Dullcote
I have had no problem, but I tend to use it up before a "year or two." When I get a new bottle, I pour half into the empty former bottle, then fill both up with thinner.

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Todd, you are raising a question in my mind, to which I think I know the answer, but I’d like to clarify things:
You’re listing three cars “built” in the ‘50s, which do not appear on Ed’s

Re: Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Hi Fred,
I have a BCK (blt 1956), ERIE (blt 1952) and a PRR (blt 1951), all unbuilt Branchline kits. Would you be interested in a trade? I model 1952, so I'm hoping the WP cars are the ones built in

Branchline 40' Postwar AAR box cars
Hi all, I have a question regarding Branchline's 40' postwar AAR box cars. As a WP fan I've built 3 of these (WP owned 250) for my HO-scale fleet. However, I have 2 more to build that I would like to
