One of the interesting challenges of modeling a prototype railroad, particularly a lower profile non-Class I, is correctly modeling the rolling stock of the railway.

The Algoma Central Railway ran through almost 300 miles of pure wilderness in the northern part of the Canadian province of Ontario, serving primarily mining and forestry industries and a large steel mill at the southern terminus of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

I was wondering if there is anyway to reattach the light holder to the frame? I've tried liquid weld with no success, Any suggestions?

I never started a blog before but here goes... I am going to use the blog just to throw stuff out there, and see what sticks.  Sort of my own "build progress thread".  Comments and suggestions are welcome.  And happy to answer any questions- can't say I am doing things right but willing to share anything and everything.

A bit of background.

My scratch built O scale Eureka Depot was inspired by an ad that appeared way back in the October 1980 Model Railway Craftsman magazine for the Horseshoe Meadows kit, then marketed by Railway Engineering Agency. I've got a collection of photos, plans, etc that I've collected over many years, and find these a useful source of ideas for new structures and scenes. This depot is built to fit a particular space/location using a foam core substructure and slips of card painted and grained to simulate weatherboards.
