Bill, So I presume you are also a member of the S-Scale list since your post made it here? I have never heard of a "Box Car Workbench!" Must be one of the few, the VERY few. I suspect there might be some sort of metamorphosis that goes on there...I want one. Good luck in joining your new group. Cheers :) Roy Inman www.unionstationphotos.com

However, it seems to be very complicated to do so. I'm presently waiting to see if my joining work is going to be OK! Anyway, just wanted everyone to know that my main work bench is built from one of those old Reading / CNJ wooden box cars. Seems when I lived at home, [late forties] our neighbor who worked for the Reading at Rutherford Yards, told us that his job was breaking up all the wooden box cars and if we needed any lumber it was available. Otherwise they were burning it up. My Dad, quite a handy guy, said sure and promptly built a terrific work bench out of that old lumber. After my parents passed on, I moved the work bench to my home here in Hershey. If you ever visit us, just look beneath the work bench and you will see the very variety of wood beams supporting it. Really weird isn't it? or even better, perhaps, poetic! "S"ee Ya, Bill Well, it is at least 10 minutes later, and I'm still not sure that I have been accepted into this CNJ group.
