I built one of Gene Fusco's Railyard models kits, a Conrail PD3000. I soldered all the brass to brass parts instead of pricey cyanopoxy. These take some...
As attatchments cannot be included with post I have placeed the photos in the PHOTOS section under the album PD3000. A quick link can be found at the top of...
Hey guys - were the 7600-series RS11s set up for long hood forward? Yeah, I'm at it again. :^) Dubya ex-Con, NS -- Will Lawrence - Maitland, NS Canada "A man...
I know at least some were. Conrail 7644 was - I found that out by the little F on the sidesill of the long hood when Iwas painting one years ago. The RS11's...
Thanks Matt - after posting this (of course!) I found a photo of 7647 that had the F visible. Duh! ... -- Will Lawrence - Maitland, NS Canada "A man has no...
Lon, I brush paint my trucks and wheels. I dip my brush alternately between floquil rust and floquil black, usually a little bit of black and more rust. It...
I have 3 of them and want to get rid of the N scale horns that are on them now. What Details West horn would be the closest match for them? Thanks Mark G...
Personally I prefer to use PSC's plastic horn for a "basic" 3-chime Leslie. They're simply crisper and straighter than most any metal one (and a whole lot...
The BIG 'CR" was done by Walthers years ago. The data & number look fairly standard. As for the CONRAIL & mini logo I'd look at flat car decs, maybe even N...

Hello All, I am trying to fill out my Conrail roster and I am currently looking for an Atlas 8-40CW in plain Conrail paint. I have been able to find a few...
I'm not sure if this car is correct for the OCS train, but it appears that Walthers made a version of the dome car without the vents by the dome glass. I just...
Overall it looks close but the problem is I've never seen one in person & the pics Walthers uses aren't great. Has anyone ever been able to look at one in a...
I looked into this somewhat when I started my project which is still ongoing but has slowed to a crawl. The Walthers car is a nice car but the Bachmann shell...
Luther, I don't think this is the same shell as on the Empire Builder set. It says new body style. And I don't see those strange vents by the dome window....
Another question has also come to mind - is this the 'plated' version that the Superliners are. If so I wonder how well they take paint? I'd imagine a coat of...
Is this model at all accurate? I only have one shot of a Conrail ACF 4650, and it's 886144. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180334081971 Tim...
Matt Thanks! I had thought those were 4600's since they are not stenciled Plate C. I can't make out the hatches in either photo I have found -- certainly the...
