Folks,
The differences between say the Jackson & Sharp and the Pullman construction are very interesting.

I have never seen diagonal rods coming off the queen posts before. Were they there when you started, or were they on the
plans?

If you have any any energy left when you finish that one; there is another Pullman car body at the Colorado Railroad Museum. Although
they may decide to restore it to her second owner the Colorado & Northwestern.

It is sure great to watch those car bodies come back to life for a person who lives far away!
