Before & After
Purchased this Atlas Beer Can Tank Car from eBay. The red hand rails were just a little too much for me, so I upgraded the paint job. I left the brake wheel the original red.

One more shot of that train...
I've been dabbling with HO scale. Here's three cars I recently finished.
I've been busy decaling anything lay about on the work bench. So here the list:
1 & 2 - MDC Roundhouse 70 ton 3 bay hoppers - complete lettering for Southern, ACI tags, and wheel inspection dots.
3 - Athearn 70 ton 3 bay hopper (B&O) - Added ACI tags...
4 - Atlas 90 ton hopper (Clinchfield) - Added ACI tags and lube plates
5 - All of them lined up...
My friend TJ Holland was an avid model railroader and among his many talents was painting and applying decals. Here's five ACF covers hoppers he stripped, repainted, and Decaled for the Southern Railway.
