Accurail’s CN boxcar
6. This “out-of-the-box” Accurail Canadian National
boxcar illustrates where I used a small amount of white
oil paint around the lower part of the doors to denote
where flour bags broke and spilled during transit,
or while loading or unloading. You see this on a few
freight cars in a consist, and it adds a little variety to
a cut of cars. I upgraded the model to match my resin
cars by replacing the cast-on grab irons and ladders
with wire and plastic ones.
