Nice looking car! Would sure like to see a kit for SP/T&NO stockcars. Charles Weston

I'm attaching two fresh shots. I've yet to attach the doors and all the metal/plastic detail parts. Right now it's riding on a pair of PRS trucks. I don't know what style of truck the prototype ran on, but I'm guessing Andrews for the later version. This car is fairly unique for stock cars. As far as I can remember the Soo Line didn't have too many unique pieces of equipment throughout it's history so this might be the only time they stepped out alone. I also have installed some Kadee #5's although instructions provide a way of using the #800 couplers. I might have time this weekend to put in it train to check it's roadworthyness! I might note that the detail parts are a curious selection of parts from several suppliers--Tichey grabs, grandt brake wheel, SHS brake detail, some stirrups by Lane, and some that I didn't recognize. This has been a fun project, as it's a much different twist on the old wooden craftsman kit and isn't even close to the typical resin kits. Bob Werre
