Drew at NorDel MRRC

Don your tin foil hats ladies and gentlemen, and take a look at this video all about what makes the Rapido RDC so great...

Passenger Car Interiors

Admittedly the detail on much of the RTR HO stuff is pretty darn impressive these days.  However, I have several of the old Walthers passenger car kits - the ones with the pressed metal sides, wood floors, etc.  I bought a bunch of the Red Cap, Palace Car, and other interior detail parts.  I thought it would be a fun project to super-detail these otherwise empty car bodies.

Someone offers a site with all the Pennsy cars - side elevations and floor plans - so that gives me a start.  If, however, anyone has any suggestions, concerning painting, floor cover, etc., I'd be most happy to hear them.

Excellent video and excellent product.

Great job Drew.  It was good to meet you last night on A Modlers Life Patreon meeting too!

Wait a minute....

.... not only does he have a SHRINK RAY in his basement... he has also perfected the art of CLONING INANIMATE OBJECTS!

... we're doomed.

Also, call me uneducated... but what good is a shrink ray really going to do you if Rapido decides to market real-er than life scale figures and stops by your house for volunteers?

(P.S. in light of last year’s Area 51 craziness, I thought it would be wise to remark that I am completely joking.  I am not being remotely serious with the above commentary, nor have I been sponsored by the press or the tinfoil industry to stir up trouble)
