Gardening leave

Wednesday afternoon - 11/05/05

Time for a shameless consumerism update - postie delivered a parcel this morning while I was out mowing the front lawn. I finished in double-quick time and didn't bother with the edges.

First up is this CSX SD60 from the Life-Like Proto 2000 range. I'm not a great fan of the stealth grey livery, I think the yellow nose versions looked much better - see the CSX Photo Archives for further information on CSX liveries.

On the other hand, the RailBox scheme seen here on this InterMountain boxcar is probably my favourite freight car livery of all time.

The InterMountain release is a whole lot finer than the older models I had when I first got into US modelling.

Also from InterMountain is this 60 foot Pullman Standard boxcar...

The double-stacks come as a set of 5.
