Maybe it's about time I should show you this perhaps?
1/2"n3, 94% Scratchbuilt, working Brakes, painted and weathered to represent the last months of the C&S in 1941. The weathering has faded considerably and the only let down was, I couldn't at that time cut my own Shiplap planking.
1994 National Convention, Porirua, New Zealand.
1st Place Freightcars.
Best in Show Trophy Cup.
1994 National N.G. Convention, Denver, USA.
