Right (memory:-[). I got the trucks as a separate item. My car just sits on the trucks (prototype style), no screws. Found the trucks on "hoseeker.net", Lamount (Lamont). Did a quick Google search for

I have one of these. I believe the sides are card-stock. The wheels in the RB trucks are 28".

Interesting enough is Red Ball (type material, lead) seems to have lasted 70 years and is still going :-D!

The only PFM one I have seen (not saying there were not others) was not a dial caliper, was metal, and is going for in excess of $100. Low cost metal dial (or digital) calipers can be had at Harbor Fr

Did the Athearn car have the rivets?

Interesting tank holding design/s. Ends look similar but no two seem alike.

And there's a place on eBay that sells Tamiya's lacquer (flat black among others). Appears to be real lacquer as I have added from my gallon of lacquer thinner and it didn't gel, just thins down. Neve

This shop buys and sells Floquil. http://www.narrowgaugemodeling.com/floquil-paint/

Tough one. If any are boxcars with doors that open you might try stuffing them with memory foam (removable if doesn't work) or similar. Other types of cars, I'm at a loss!

I started this as all my CBC's are at the other house. I'm SIP 220 miles away. I think one of the CBC's (1930?) had a picture but wanted to get decals (mail order) if they are available. Would give me

Excellent photo however the original discussion was about a brass 2 dome tank car.

Appears to be. Notice that yours has 2 ladders on one side only. Mine has only one ladder on both sides. I have no box! I bought second hand so have no idea what the original owner did to it. $200 WOW

I have a nice looking brass tank car. It's 2 dome and etched on the bottom of the frame is AJIN, 10-1988. It is painted gloss black and that's the way I bought it. It has trucks with .066 (+/-) wheel

I has a freezer fail once when I wasn't at this house. It was a total health hazard and was scrapped. I can guess the same with all those reefers, I don't think they could be cleaned!

I got some Tichy #3080 roller bearings. I use a plastic holder for wheelsets and tried these on the axle ends. They work perfectly to keep paint off the axle ends. Just a thought for those who might w

Notice they are now in 2 packs down from initial release of 4 packs. Way back I thought the Hooker should be black but lots of emails, the orange is correct.

Interesting that the fellow on the far right has a pistol in his belt. I'm wondering what this picture is really showing?

For those interested in lead stickon's see below. However they won't ship to CA and a few other states. https://www.imperialsupplies.com/item/0798580
