BNSF MOW car

If Buzz's Paint Shop is looking for a challenge, here's an interesting car that would fit nicely on several BNSF routes. I'd try this, but it's way past my talents. Maybe use Great Northerner's freeware NP steel reefer pack? Thanks!

Howdy!

Was looking to be semi-productive today. Cleaning the kitchen wasn't just that appealing. So I did a random act of rolling stock kindness for you. Check you PM.

And for you BNSF fans this will be in the Rolling Stock Repaints when I submit it and it's approved.

Photo realistic because I A-Modified the original photo to fit the car side. Then applied weathering to areas as needed. Resized the door to fit the external hinges of the car. Applied a patch to cover where the exhaust fan was on the side of the original model.
"BNSF Lettering" was B-Modified to allow for auto-numbering on car.

Ah, much better to sit in a recliner and sip coffee than to clean the kitchen and do the cat's bowls. I open the can and dispense, let them clean their own dishes.

Oh my gosh... thank you!!! That looks beautiful!! Thank you again for turning this around so quickly. I wasn't expecting this at all. But I understand... kitchen or trains... yea... trains will win out every time... until my wife says otherwise. I checked the PM and I'll get it downloaded / installed a little later. I have the perfect spot for it, and will update this thread with a screen capture. Thank you again!!!!

Hi Ironcat,
this could really become one of the best eyecatchers in the TS.
I've never done this (10 years of TS!): Asking whether we can hope to find it in the download library ?
Thanks
Kris

That looks really nice, ironcat.

Thanks for the nice remarks everyone.

I try to help out when I can. I like to pay it forward for the kindness and help shown to me on this forum. I've been in folks shoes before and will most assuredly be in my own "asking shoes" again in the future.

Hey Kris! Yes I will be posting this and several other things I have done for others in the near future. The only hurdle to cross is to stop sitting on my hands and do it.
But as I used to tell the ex-wife, I am a procrastinator not a amateur-crastinator. I take my crastination very seriously.
