Larry, P&LE 5000-5999, Lot 774-B, built by Despatch Shops 3-49 can accurately be modeled with the BT kits. However, I don't believe that BT produced any P&LE kits. Regards, Ed Hawkins

Was the Branchline Blueprint 40 ft postwar AAR boxcar produced lettered for P&LE? Does anyone have a photo of a Branchline Blueprint 40 ft, 6 ft door, postwar AAR boxcar, lettered for P&LE, that I

I have been using Polly Scale in my H for a few years. I use distilled water from the drugstore as my thinner. I thin by eye. I spray at 25 to 30 psi and use a water trap. I take the airbrush apart

I'm doing artwork for decals for a QA&P wood boxcar as pictured in McCall & Schultz "FRISCO Southwest" but have no information other than the small picture. This is what I have so

Ooops, They were repainted and marked "CHESAPEAKE & OHIO" over "A800" etc  at the Saginaw shops and marked "SAG 7-48" just before the For Progress mono took affect.  There is a Bob's Photo image

Ted Culotta did an 'Essential Freight Cars' on that kit and wasn't too impressed either with the model or with it's decals - he printed his own. (RMC March 2005). Barry Bennett Coventry,
