Well Lance Sparks came over last night to watch some SEC football. After much prodding, he convinced me to take a couple photos of some finished freight cars. The first is an Athearn Genesis 60' PS Auto Parts box car. The roof walkways were removed and a few other details were modified. I'm still debating if I want to repatch the car for CSX or leave it L&N. I also need to weather the wheels.   |

Another car that we took pictures of last night. Its a Genesis PC&F box car that's been slightly modified and weathered. I still need to weather the wheels on this one as well. I might also add graffiti as well.   |

What Josh failed to mention was the true nature of my visit. I was actually over there buying more stuff from him. I've been using his collection as my own personal hobby shop while I'm getting started modeling trains. I'd hate to think how much money I've spent but sadly I think I've personally financed his leaving the hobby.

Lance,
I guess somebody has got to finance the new nursery. Going to finish off the drywall today. New moldings next weekend maybe. Once we figure out if its a boy or a girl we get to pick out paint color. I'm going to finish this project about 8 months early.
