Thanks, Ben. It’s amazing that the car even has the original door as well as KD brakes. This one is in as close to original condition as you’ll ever find for a car built between 1914 and

I just don't think that it is reasonable to assume that this ever happened much. I 'm fairly sure that bulk deliveries went to wholesalers and trucks then delivered to the individual service

Nelson Moyer asked: "Westerfield #6151 is the PRR X25 steel boxcar. I found a builder’s photo of the original Union Line build, but my kit is the modern rebuild with AB brakes and Youngstown door.

Not intending to belabor the point but based on private e-mails I see it should be pointed out that yes, the home page looks fine. The problem is what you see when you click on any of HO Scale

I’ve been researching prototype data for my kit stash of Westerfield and F&C cars in preparation for building. I was successful in obtaining most of the information I need for the G22, G28, and G29

Randy, Ted's idea about SP B-50-13 is an interesting avenue of inquiry. You can find information, data, and many photos of both B-50-8 and B-50-13 in AUTHORYEARTITLEThompson, A. W.2006Southern Pacific

Postscript: The background to the lettering is RGB 15/23/25, a very dark charcoal that looks almost black. The letters are RGB 41/51/52, a rather dark gray. When you take each of those expressed as a

I dunno... I use Firefox, updated very frequently by Mozilla, and the lettering is almost completely lost in the background color. Several times I needed to use my mouse to highlight the words so

Randy, I think what you might have is a Southern Pacific B-50-8, built in 1913 by Standard Steel Car Co. The photos referenced are not of high enough resolution for me to examine closely or confirm

Excellent George, I be this would work with styrene rivets onto resin. I have a current project to try this with. Bill Welch

The site is not well coded, I think. For me, the site is fine. When you click on a photo it is enlarged and the rest of the site is darkened. If you close that photo, the rest of the site returns to

Nelson, I have been experimenting using Future (Pledge) as a method to attach resin rivets to styrene on a new project. I have also tried the Future as a glue for thin styrene (.005) in some
