congratulations on building a REAL car kit. Few modelers dare to really build car kits anymore.

When I started in HOn3 40 years ago, La Bell and Tomalco kits were the only way to got more rolling stock. I've still got a bunch of these cars. Some new modelers refer to my rolling stock as "Earl's HOn3 Museum".

There are some compromises in La Bell's kits. The combine it too short to build a 212-215, but it does make a passable 210.
