DanielG Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I built this transfer caboose for a friend's railway. Scratch built to 1/48 scale out of styrene with metal grab-irons etc. and a wooden deck. It covers a heavy brass cleaning component, trucks are Atlas (I think!).

Harry P. Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Very nice. My only comment would be that they're way too pristine looking. Where is all the hobo graffiti? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
