So... I guess it's a good thing I got this while Athearn was still producing BB models *sniffles *. Anyway, I started hacking apart an ex-ATSF caboose to do exactly what PC did to them... make them into bay windows. This one will be painted in CR. Most of the heavy cutting is done, although I still have to cut out the sides and scratchbuild the bay windows. The trucks are from Tahoe Model Works. These things are absolutely beautiful, and Brian is a great guy to deal with. Highly recommended. Yes, the Cheez-Its are taken into consideration when making a parts list. ;D And yes, these pictures were taken with the caboose sitting on my MacBook.
