Ruths Hopper

I have started on the first car for Ruth's train. It is a little ore hopper. The cars had to be cute for her.

New Car

I am really happy with how my new car turned out. It is a 1.6" scale 48' well car for double stacks.

Ballast track at the park.

I spent the day ballasting track with my new ballast hopper. It worked well. We carried about 20 loads with it and ballasted about 400 feet of track.

The latest car I am working on is a spine car. It is the cars that carry semi trailers.
