i have thought about these boxcars for a long time. I don't think they will every hit the production list of a real
manufacturer, so I decided to apply some skills learned in assembling some of the Modelers' Choice kits (flat sides,
roofs from other kits, etc.). In this case, the roof was carved off of an Atlas 60' boxcar, the underframe is from the same,
and the sides and ends are scratchbuilt. Here are some pre-paint photos of the project: Back to Scratchbuilding

Back to home. Back to home.
