Thanks, Jason. Lots of great progress.

The first time we painted the caboose in the park, there was no need to use any stencils, the lettering underneath was so prominent it you could almost have done it blind.

For readers who may not be aware, one of the oddities about 04990 is that it had a peaked roof over the body, but had a rounded roof on the cupola.
