Looks good Bill and a good tribute to Howie. Old school can be
good--it shows our heritage. I had no idea that Super Scale made such a
kit. That actually might be a good project for one of our laser cutter
manufacturers to do (wood or plastic). I don't think the Sn3 folks have
any--I'd buy one!

All,
I am here to report progress - again! This is my latest project. It is
NOT PRR and unbelievably is - freelance! This is the first time I
have ever thrown excessive research to the wind and "winged it' with
available parts and ideas as they came to me.
I previously mentioned it is rare. I dare say not many here have ever
seen this S Bobber Caboose before. It is an OLD School kit made by
Super Scale. I would like to find out the approximate time period for
it. I bought it as a basket case on eBay to replace my On30 caboose
(which I still have & is still for sale!) to go with my "Howie" Shay
as a logging train. It is etched COPPER. The frame is very soft metal.
This is also the first time wheels have stayed with the model
throughout the project -- blast booth & all - because I did not want
to risk prying them out!
Thank You,
Bill Lane
