B&O USRA shells

I was grateful when Rapido sent replacement body shells to replace the greenish shade on the B&O cars; that was a classy move on their part. However, it arrived after I had already stripped the paint

Pedestal crane vs. a pillar crane

Bob, All this has been about a crane mounted on a concrete pedestal. The crane itself is a pillar crane. They can be mounted (obviously) on a pedestal. But they can also be mounted on freight cars, or

I’m decaling the RCW Fe-22 and have a question about the train slogans used by the Santa Fe. I’d initially was going to use the map from Microscale 87-215 but it completely dissolved when I put it in
