Just noticed the spelling is different. Mike

I started working on a 3D design for the "Paganoni Press" flat car load today for Richard. When I get the parts to fix my printer, I could print one for your friend Marty. Mike

Bill they showed up in my email box. Look at the very bottom of the message you received; you may find links to the images. They are also in the online message. You can see them there. Doug Harding

The photos are available on the groups.io web site. Take the link at the bottom of the message. Note that the gondola was not a 40 footer, it was a 52 foot one. Steve Hile

Looking at the pics again from Steve they came they stacked and not embedded so the gon looked the same length as the reefer. If it is longer it’s ex MTH tooling. Brian J. Carlson -- Brian J.

no photos :-( Bill Keene Irvine, CA

Can confirm the reefer is also ex MTH. MTH had what they called a 70 ton mill gon. It was similiar to Bethlehem and Greenville cars, but I never looked at it too closely since Proto and tangent had

I was a bit surprised by the Scale Trains PS-1's as it seems like they are intended to be the Blue Box cars of the 2020's with everything cast on. I took a couple of pictures with my phone. I hope

Group, The Burlington had near identical 52' flats like the NP & SP&S. They were classified as FM-12. There are minor differences notably where the deck lines up with the stake pockets. The FM-14 is a

I have read the same. A car loaded with “PHP” (packing house products) would have processed meat products, like Doug lists, and often cut meat reduced from sides, all of it stacked on the floor.

<< Scaletrains made the announcement of their kit classic PS-1 boxcar. The artwork dates are later 40's to early 50's The MN&S car is not for this time period, it is 60's and later Howard Garner son

Okay me of the best modelers I know is John Paganoni. I’m going to show this to him - I’m sure he’ll get a kick out if it. Marty

Interesting, and very cool that you have a personal connection. Thanks Richard! Clarence

That's a unique load for sure. Thanks Tim! CRZ

Bill The CB&Q cars' decks were 1'6" longer than the NP cars 52'0" decks, but it's close enough. :-) The CB&Q series 92000-92399 were identical, were they not ?

I have Jerry's decals (and some of his flat car kits), but my friend wants them for the Chinese Red cars. Jerry's are for the mineral red cars. The lettering is quite different. Bill

Can anyone tell me when the CNJ started adding the Lady Liberty Emblem to its freight cars? Thanks in advance. Colin Meikle

Tim, you imply that the Scale Trains PS-1 aren’t 100% accurate, correct? I could use a few PS-1 boxcars lettered for Eastern roads, and I’ve been holding off planning to buy Kadee. If these are

Incredible, in my opinion -- It's not hard to find 100% accurate KADEE models for $20 or less and all of the Kadee cars (except the ridiculous special run collector cars) are
