          2: This ACF RailBox started life as an Atlas kit before Jeff
        
        
          turned it into this amazing model. He used many details
        
        
          including Sergent draft gear boxes and scale couplers, Plano
        
        
          pin lifters and crossover platforms, Hi-Tech Details air hoses
        
        
          as well as stirrup steps, brake rigging and scale wheelsets!
        
        
          Jeff used a flame to create a bit of a roof bulge per the proto-
        
        
          type. This model represents many hours of work.
        
        
          3: Jeff tricked out this Walthers waffle side box car with an
        
        
          array of details that include: tack boards, grab irons, stirrup
        
        
          steps, scale wheelsets, air hoses and coupler pin lifters. Jeff
        
        
          left the factory paint but weathered the car with oils and chalks.
