|
|
The New Accurail P&WV twin 60-ton hopper is hitting the Hobby Shops Now!
This car has some "Good Bones", for an up-graded kit-bash project.
My plan...Add Kadee* scale wheel-sets & couplers. Add cut-levers and airline hose and connections.
Add detailed wine door locks & latches and new Brake Wheel & parts.
Remove and add some H.O. scale Archer* Decal Revits to match the pro-type. # 717.
Add some of the very small car-end decals. A bit of black paint touch-up.
Give it a lite weathered look with some chalk-marks. DONE!
It will not be a perfect match by any stretch,
but it should have a real nice P&WV Ore/Coal hauling car flavor when finished. |
