Odds & Ends

I haven't been very active with miniature railroad activity, but a few projects are still progressing...


I cobbled this four wheel gondola from a Kato underframe and some stripwood. It's based on my recollection of a Japanese prototype.


This is a agricultural flat car kit from Miniatures By Eric with scratchbuilt bulkheads added.


A Kiso Forest Railway passenger car, from an etched brass kit from World Kougei, which is on par with Modellwagen for exceptionally high quality and ease of buildibility.


Also from World Kougei is this tiny mechanism which will power an equally tiny diesel critter. It's not a great runner at the moment, but I think the weight of the body will improve things.


Finally a little green toy diesel from Pro Hobby. It's funny.
