Good evening, There has been much mention of brake fluid for stripping paint. I believe it is worth nothing that not all brake fluids are the same. Near the end of restoring my father's Chevelle, I be

Thank you Scott for the information on the Plano running board, guess I don't need to wait to find those to build the car. Flat hasn't been an issue for me, but lengthening a steel roof walk with that

Good afternoon, Fwiw, I have Yarmouth 220 sill steps for my in the pipeline F&C X37's. I'll need to snip off one vertical piece, but will end up with a metal part with the support angling toward the c

Good evening, May I ask the difference between the Fe-21 and 22? I see the 21 mentioned in the kit instructions, a long with a single door car. The LL kit I have as a base is a double door car, which

Good afternoon, I'm struggling through the F&C kit now. Instructions note 100-B&LE 50-CGW 50-UP Improved underframe: 200-NKP 200-W&LEqlw 100-PM RPCyc 31-32 has been very helpful. I'll be using Yarmout

My last attempt to order Free State levers ended with a response that they are out of production, unfortunately. Happy hunting for those though, Greg Snook

Bruce, With the domed heads, would there be one on each compartment, creating an air void between the compartments? I have always assumed, without any reason, that there was one head in the tank, curv

RJ, I love the weathering on the deck of your flat car. Could you please share your methods for that? I have one Owl Mountain flat car awaiting decals, and would love to weather it as well as you have

Absolutely! I've been chasing several of the USRA rebuilds where possible, and would love to have them available through RCW! Cheers, Greg

I just received an order last week for decals. It might depend on what he has, and where he is, but I would place an order with confidence and patience. Cheers Greg Snook

For me, it depends on the car. Decently deep side sill? Resin air brakes will be used, no need to add to the cost of a kit if it won't be seen in any reasonable operating scenario. Cheers, Greg Snook

Randy, This looks like a really interesting project, thank you for sharing. Hopefully you are able to reach the funding goal, it would be nice, obviously, to see more cars produced! Greg

Nice work as usual Bill! I'm working, more off than on, on a Sunshjne PRR G24 steel side rebuild. Did you add the ladder stiles to the end of the car, and if so, can I ask how? The Sunshine car doesn'

Thank you, Mr. Pardie, for following up on the door, it is appreciated! And thank you Ted, for bringing back this product, I'm looking forward to ordering one later this week. Can I ask if this will b

Thanks, I certainly will! It appears Yahoo cut off the older message I was replying to, but the original message mentioned the article in the Essential Freight Car series. That was lost in my message

Good evening, While preparing for the upcoming PRRPRO group's X26/X26C project, I found two Tichy USRA cars, the original single sheathed kit and a "normal" rebuilt car that I purchased as part of a g

Good afternoon, I've recently received this kit, and opened it with the intent of building it (unlike its cousins in my closet, i suppose), and quickly noticed that I don't even know where to start. T

Elden, the common container ship size in that case would be in the 4000 to 9000 teu mark. Most ships with capacity greater than that are used in the Asia-Europe trades. That said, 50k lbs in a domesti

I know that whenever I see Sunshine kits for sale, they are usually at or over list price. I was visiting Green Bay this week, and found a hobby shop, enginehouseservices.com<http://maps.google.com/lo

While Mr. Welch has provided a great source of information for wood reefers for these three companies through the modelling "e-'zines"? I was wondering if there is any information about steel reefers
