Re: replacement for Ambroid cement
Humbrol offers a "balsa" cement, which seems very similar to the old Ambroid. I've not used it much yet.
My furniture making has used a CA, Titebond and Gorilla glue, depending on application. I'd

replacement for Ambroid cement
What replacements are you using for the old go to Ambroid cement?
Apparently the last manufacturer gave up the the ghost.
I think Duco cement was an old time "new and improved" version of Ambroid

can you help me?
Can anyone supply a photocopy of the instructions for a HO scale Main line PRR N6B caboose?
How about Qualitycraft instructions for the same car?
Is the underframe the same for PRR N6A & N6B

Re: NP 50’ reefer
I agree, I thought it was a 50' car. I got fooled. The height is only 12'8" to the top of the running board.

NP 42’ reefer
Back when the Oregon Pacific & Eastern Railroad (Made famous from the movies "Stand by me" and "Empire of the North") was operating as a steam tourist line, one of these NP reefers was visible shortly

Re: NP 50’ reefer
Inside length was 34' 6" - pretty close to typical for a "40 foot" produce reefer.
I have a couple of the Brian Pate (Norwest) kits if anyone is interested.
