Our friend Glenn from Mullet River Model Works was just in and
dropped off his latest S Scale caboose body creations made
exclusively for us. Since the NASG Convention is in Lowell, MA we
asked him to shrink is new NYC O Scale caboose body down to S Scale
for us. He did and it's a beauty. For the true NE fans he did a
Boston and Albany version. It's basically the same caboose with a
taller cupola. Probably because the New England trainmen are taller
than those on the rest of the vast NYC system.
For Canadian Pacific fans he also dis the ubiquitous CPR wood caboose
body. Besides running coast to coast and then some, the CPR
ran "Down East" in New England.
These kits are comprised of laser cut wood bodies with interiors and
photoetched details and underframes. Brake gear, wire, and lettering
is not included. Since these are made in North America, there is no
price increase and remains at $90.00, same as the C&NW, CB&Q, and Soo
bodies.
Since we are going to Lowell, we will bring them with us. We will
leave a few behind for those unfortunates that are not able to make
the pilgrimage to Lowell.
No photos yet(are there ever?), but I understand Fr. Prior has once
again made the great pond crossing, and he can be counted on to post
photos for those of us that can't figure out how to load film in a
digital camera.
If you're still with us, it's three new caboose bodies:New York
Central, Boston and Albany, and Canadian Pacific.
