My first custom paint and decal, a ficticious caboose for MEC.
The second of two Box cars my second project. Correct placement of road numbers here.
RS3 #554, its a  RS1 converted into the RS3   Given the truck mounted coupler and primitive motor this one is destined for a siding.
B&M caboose. Ironically I selected the same road number for this cab as the only other B&M buggy I had.

This russel snow plow is another project that was ongong for a long time before finally being fininshed.
This tank car represents one of the 12 MEC had. Road numbers 700-712 were all on the roster at one point.
Some recently completed of the passenger cars on my roster.
Above is an Athearn MEC GP7 #564 in Pine tree Green paint.  Below is a Athearn B&M 1725 a Blue balck scheme. My first weathering projects for  locos. I used a combo of Chalk and poly scale paints and sealed them with dullcoat.
Note: All of my work so far is brush painted and none of it has been Airbrushed.

Before detailing a Sterwart F3A in MEC colors
To the right and below are the first two pieces for the CIC line named after my daughter's intials. 683 is her birthday and the brake person in the picture to the left is her 20 years from now or so.

The caboose road number 993 marks the day we had to put down our dog Margo an Airedale terrier who had lymphoma for a year and a half. A fitting tribute for the end of her line.

The cab has markings for the MEC and B&M representing the connection of the road to the two lines.
