Model Railroading > Cement plant switcherDate: 01/27/25 14:24 Cement plant switcher Author: Charls This is my newest addtion, cement plant switcher. When I miss-order a Rapido 44tons for a friend, I decided instead of getting rid of it to turn it into a second hand unit sold to the cement plant. I added a few details from my scrap box , relettered it to my wife named fictive leasing company and got my son to weather it VALXweathering. Full family involvment and the perfect runner for it.
