Here is my old tank car recently acquired. For the purists they came with electro couplers but they were knuckless so the dealer switched them out for me.

TJ if you go into NH again this guy is on route 28 in Wolfboro. Some big barnHe is only allowed to be opened major holiday weekends. Maybe next year he will be squared away. He goes under Twenty Century Limited.

So Ed, here is the rust bucket. Enjoy!

Yes no need to weather it.:thumbsup:



And.....it doesn't look like it needs any epoxy either.
T mans got something that needs no epoxy?

Does it have both hand rails and ladders?
What color you going to do it T?

A Special T man's epoxy car would be nice.

Down East Eh! I am sure you could find trains there.

I like the epoxy logo but I don't have plans for this car yet. Too much to do.

I keep trying to buy one of the Tootsie Roll or Life Saver cars, but they always go for absurd prices.

Me too.

How about a Hershey 3 dome custom painted?

Good seller, I have dealt with a bunch of times.

Bad link.

 

[gunrunnerjohn]

I did a search. A plastic frame with old trucks, I think I'll pass. I really want the visual impact of the Life Saver or Tootsie Roll ones.

Hmmm, The " I like the best" part, is that part of the Logo too?

I am beginning to really like this model tank car.
