Ex grand trunk funk

[Badhorse79]

Well it started out real bad , I had but the flat finish on and it "frosted" on me so I got out the thinner and scrubbed it ! Started over and I'm shocked how it turned out !!!!
The DM&L bought the car it was in bad shape so the boys at the shop added new trucks new couplers and hoses and reflective stripes (paint shop is busy working on a new logo that's why it's still crusty)

Interesting story on what has turned into a great looking car. May want to move the air hose to the other side of the coupler though....

I'm still laughing at this half a day after reading it! It reminds me of my old man trying to make an RS3 stick into a cinder block foundation wall after he jacked something up on it. The foundation wall won, RS3 never ran again.

You know I am a thrower/smasher too... but, in reality... there is no reason to throw/smash a railcar. You can always strip it or repaint it and decal it into a new car... but, I know it's more fun to chuck it! LOL! Worse case... you could always make a model of the following pic! DE Dan

It does look good! I can see it at a silo being knocked around by switcher. DE Dan
