Milwaukee RD 40ft Horizontal Rib Boxcars

Unread postby GogebicChief » Mon Oct 16, 2023 3:28 am

Good Day:
I wanted to make some Milwaukee Rd Cars as gift for Buzz, to repay him for all the help, he gave me in acquiring the CNW Bi-Levels & Pullmans. He liked them and asked to me to get them in the Library. He even helped me with the download files. I have sent it off to Chacal. These cars were very much a Milwaukee Rd thing. They made 1000's of them from the late 1930's until early 60's. They were made at the Milwaukee Rd West Milwaukee / Valley shops. Here are some shots.:

I've a good memory for whatever I can remember!
If you wait for perfection you will never do anything but it doesn’t stop you wanting it.
Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

Are these new models? Are the ribs 3D or painted on?

Great work!

Sorry, but alas, they are "Painted on"... They are the original Mainelines BAR ACF 40ft Car. I am not that talented. !!**sorry**!! Stefan
