Hey, Todd. Thanks. The green diagonal stripe means the car is only supposed to be used for paper loading. Without the stripe = no restrictions.

Thanks. The gondolas were not acquired from the MoPac. The AD&N had some of them as far back as 1914. In 1977 The AD&N acquired 75 of these cars from the Missouri Pacific.

The prototype. My version. I used a Dimi Trains sugarbeet gondola. I know it is not exactly the same car, but I didn't think I could find a closer one without scratch building the whole thing. Maybe one of these days. :cool:

Nice job. How did you do the curved roof?

I am planning on finishing my two gondolas that I am working on. I also need to work on my power sub station and my GP10 project some.

In Realistic Model Railroad Design: Your Step-By-Step Guide to Creating a Unique Operating Layout, Tony Koester talks about how to go about designing a plausible freelance railroad. All usual disclaimers apply.

I worked on adding storage tanks and a truck loading rack to my Georgia-Pacificchemical plant on the AD&N this weekend.

Working some on my GP10 project and some storage tanks for my chemical plant.

Nice job, Wayne.

Nice work.

Looks like a good start.

It's good to hear from you, Ralph. I'm glad you are getting up and about.

What I started with. The prototype. My version.

Thanks, Y'all. My daughter said, "You're finally starting to make it look nice."

Thank you, sir.

I finished up with the fascia, throttle jacks and car card boxes.

My recent modeling activity has consisted of installing a fascia on my AD&N layout. I also installed throttle jacks for my walk around throttles. I had a couple of Micro-Mark car card boxes so I measured them and built some more. I installed all of them this weekend. East end of layout...

I have code 80 also.

I hope to finish wiring my throttle jacks and build some car card boxes and get them mounted on the fascia and labeled this weekend. I have an exam and a paper due Monday so that will cut into my modeling time.
