Ken, if would have been nice to have seen that engine during the Duluth
Convention, he said he was involved in the run up to Two Harbors.
Question--- regarding the PRS ladders on the PS-1. Did you make up some
template to position the mounting holes? I hope to be finishing mine
using those ladders and that seems like the only way to accurately
position those mounting holes. The only other alternative might be to
use old Perma-bilt ladders with much filing (there seems to be millions
of those around).

I built a few of the Kaslo PS-1's. I used some PRS ladders and details
but they make a great addition to the freight car fleet. Don't
remember any problems with the directions but I have a difficult time
following directions anyway. The Buffalo Creek car in the mhrywest
photo album is a PS-1. I think I have five or so remaining in the
to-do stack. Scrub them before painting.
Busy weekend coming and I really want to get the lapped turnouts done
for Steve so he can have the yard working when the Pines and Prairies
guys visit next Thursday, so no more dilly dally on the web.
Out here,

Not the past president of the D&H but seems to me I was the president
of the NPRHA at one point.
