Re: Articles: Linde Box/Tank Cars
Ed,
Have you tried Microscale Liquid Decal film over the decals before applying? I have had great luck using that product, especially on old decals.

Re: Articles: Linde Box/Tank Cars
Are Linde decals available? I've tried using MicroScale's but they are now too old. Even clear coating does not help.

He also got the DimiTrains N Scale kits for cars and structures. Reportedly he has a N Scale caboose that is inside jammed tooling that should be torched apart to see what’s inside and if it

Re: Wabash 88200-88699 Series Photos
Thanks for the links, Ray. Those photos are the 82000 series rebuilds, not the 88200-88699 series cars built by ACF in 1948, but they are helpful for color. The only 88200series car on

Re: InterMountain HO Scale Two-Bay Hoppers (Re-Release)-now Why Aren't There Production Kits?
Have they produced anything new lately? Besides decals, signs, etc., that is. I don’t believe so. Most of the cars kits (if not all) came from Gould many years ago.
Thanks!

Re: St. Louis Refrigerator Car Co. models
Jim Zwernemann built this 1/4” scale model of the older truss rod series. He used styrene as his primary material. Jim attempted to use the Tichy decal set but ended taking a different route.
