Model Railroading > She's real fine, my 409Date: 07/26/17 12:41 She's real fine, my 409 Author: WrongWayMurphy Tested out the new drovers caboose today, patterned after a G scale model.
A buddy in Dallas built the wood body, and I fabricated the steel undercarriage and lettered it. First photo is of the G scale model, and second photo the actual 1.5" scale car on my train today. I had control of the ghost train in the video, using a AirWire wireless throttle . Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/26/17 12:42 by WrongWayMurphy.
