Details:

It has been a while since I have listed any weathered cars due to my moving. Due to recent events I must now post the following I ship to USA zip codes only. Also visible undercarriage boxcar weights are painted to deter the problem of rust appearing in the future.

They are not lined up sprayed by the dozen with the same colors on all. This listing is for a weathered Accurail rock island ' single door boxcar.

I also take the time to insure that parts are fit properly such as doors car ends etc. Save on multiple items.

Photos from my collection of morning sun books online sources of like or similar cars are used as reference in the weathering process. Photo bucket.

That brake wheels and staffs are painted to match the car not left in black plastic as done by some of the pros the wheel sets knuckle couplets are in gauge. Accurail current kit prices are now more than this completely assembled weathered car. This calls for a minimum of four steps of weathering on each car.

All hopper car weights are painted on both sides. 65 for 6 cars. Example 6 of these cars will fit in the USPS flat rate box for a maximum postage of I always use priority mail postage is the minimum to your zip code.

Also, price logic. I am downsizing refocusing the era that I am model ing.

I am a model railroader, this is part of the hobby for me not a business.
