And that would be what volume and number or issue number please??
CN Lines is not listed by year and month so that is not as helpful as
it otherwise might be.
Sorry, back then they were referred to both ways. It's Vol.3 No.4. There was
also a modeling follow up Vol.4 No.3 (July 1992). Walt

Brian,
The RMC back issues you are after are the Aug 93 and Feb 94 ones. Aug 93 hilites the different series of boxcars (ends, roofs, doors, etc) with photos of each different spotting feature. Feb 94 is almost a play-by-play on how Stafford kitbashed various kits into both the 10' and 10'6" boxcars, listing different detail parts used. The article mentions the different resin parts (roof, ends, doors) that were previously prepared by CPRMG, but now by Sylvan (Sylvan's online catalog lists their part number, and cross reference the old CPRMG #). There are also photos of in-progress (well, all details attached, prepainted) models. Also new from when the articles were written are the Black Cat Decals. All the different paint schemes (as listed in the article, schemes 1 thru 6) are all available. In my opinion, both articles are must haves. If you are having difficulty locating back issues, please contact me off-list and we can see what we can do.
The CNLines articles show the same things, but back issues are now only photocopies. I have these too, but the copy I have I must say is pretty beat up for my using it so much. Good qualitiy photocopies showing the details, but the colour photos of the RMC issues can't be beat.

these days centres more on vehicles. I don't want to create a panic
but perhaps it would be best to order these parts soon before it's too
late.
