Milk car converted by CN to Express baggage car

Tue, 2017-09-12 23:01 — Deemiorgos

I came across this model made by Athearn. I'm trying to find out more info about this car and if this is a model prototypical for CN.

Any help would be appreciated.

Seems to be a hard model to find, they must have sold out this past summer.

What is this little structure?

What I find interesting is that it is elevated.

 

Does this exist in a model?

I would so much like to add this to my collection.

I'd like to get one of these to fly over my layout in any scale.

I can envision it swooping low over the tracks,

Great Northern Simplified Patch and Paint Match

Thu, 2017-09-07 13:14 — sanchomurphy

Hi everyone,

I am doing a BN patch job with renumbering on a GN Athearn RTR GP-35. It is similar to the one below. My question is what is a good match for the GN simplified green? It always looked more brown to me but I do have some red/green colorblindness. Is there a color out there? Do I have to mix my own? I do not have an airbrush and was looking to see if anyone had experience here on doing color matched patches. By the way, the color does not have to be perfectly matched, considering 5 years of heavy use and the fact that it is a patch job.
