What’s neat - 
        
        
        
          10a-10b: The bleeding heralds on the Penn Central box car
        
        
          (Atlas) were done with Tamiya weathering chalks. ACI plates
        
        
          are Microscale decals.

          11: Mike originally could not
        
        
          find any prototype pictures
        
        
          for this Boise Cascade car
        
        
          (Atlas), so he just laid into it,
        
        
          using other pictures of Evans
        
        
          box cars for reference. His
        
        
          buddy Cal found a picture of
        
        
          one, but it was “newer” in the
        
        
          picture. Microscale decals
        
        
          were used for the patch,
        
        
          lube data, and ACI plate, and
        
        
          balsa wood was used for the
        
        
          tack boards. Weathering is
        
        
          with artists oils.
