Good morning! Well this is news of an accidental creation of a group of NYC and NKP boxcars. We were working on creating three GN 38500 box cars - a single, door and a half and double door. While showing the double door version at the Cocoa Beach RPM on 15.1.13, Pete Silcox met Bill Schaumberg, retired editor of RMC who took pictures for RMC of the meet. A gentleman standing with him looked at the GN car and commented that it was exactly the same as the NYC, NKP, and a host of related railroads box cars!
In any case we will be producing a limited number of Jerry Glow decals for several of the NYC system railroads. Please contact us off this site to indicate your interest in obtaining one or more of these new kits. Also please visit www.thesupplycar.net to see more of our freight and passenger car kits. Thanks, Jan and Bob McCarthy THE SUPPLY CAR 803-429-1811 ________________________________ From: grchud <[email protected]> To: S-Scale Yahoo - <[email protected]> Cc: Chudzinski Gary <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 15, 2013 8:38 AM Subject: {S-Scale List} Re: Modeling the NYC in S Article Chris, A locomotive set missing from Dick’s list is the F-7A/B set imported by Overland or RRM, close to the same time as the F-3A/B set. Not sure, but I’m thinking the B unit was the same for both sets. Also, I don’t recall S Helper having the F-7 units in NYC paint scheme. Correct me if I’m wrong!

Posted by: "westfield_depot" westfield_depot The S Scale SIG is pleased to announce another release in its ongoing Modeling from the Prototype series. This time Dick Karnes brings us a comprehensive overview of New York Central models in S including 30 accompanying photographs. You'll find the new article on our site at http://sscale.org/s-scale-resources/modeling-from-the-prototype/new-york-central-modeling-in-s-scale/ We're always looking for road specific overviews of S Scale models that will give those within and outside the S Scale community an idea of what's available for their favorite road. Would you like to write an article on your favorite road? We welcome submissions for anyone. Thanks for everything you do to promote scale modeling at 1:64 and your support.
