I recently finished the same kitbash using the an undec IM USRA gon as the starting point. The spiral ends available from Shapeways are a drop in replacement of the kits ends. Very easy conversion. The car is waiting its trip through the paint shop and now have a question on what color would be correct for the late 1920s, Freight Car Red or Black? --

Thanks Elden. The Monon gon was a pretty easy project using the spiral ends from Shapeways.
I have two other kit-bashes of USRA gons waiting for their trip through the paint shop, Ted Culotta's Litchfield & Madison from the St Louis 2018 RPM and a W&LE with replacement steel sides. -- René LaVoise Kirkwood, MO
