| This kit was my entrance into the world of HOn30" |
I found these views in my files that I took of my first build in HOn30". I had ordered the car by mail sometime in the early 1980's. I got back into model railroading in December 1979 following the MR cover article of the C&DR Ry. Hard to believe that I entered modeling in a scale that one has to scratch-build or kit build. I think the car turned out well considering the era. About a year later I ordered Sloan brass etchings building a Forney. Not long after I did get into HO scale standard gauge joining a local modular railroad club....George Dutka
Just found your blog. Not sure why I had not seen it before today. I am modeling HO and HOn30. I have completed building an SR&RL Boxcar from Mount Blue Model Co. It does look a lot like yours. My only problem with it is it looks too small. I don't have any real HOn30 rolling stock to compare it to except a boxcab locomotive that is supposed to be Hon30.
ReplyDeleteAnyway... I will be checking out more of your blog. It's nice to see some active Hon30 model railroading. Larry
Glad to have you along for the ride Larry...George
