Thanks! One of the nice things about doing these restoration/completion projects is that there are no instructions available to inhibit or limit the imagination and possibilities. More fun for me!

Bruce Country: USA | Posts: 33536 ocalicreek Crew Chief Posted - 10/24/2018 :  5:05:19 PM       Will the entire caboose be the color of the cupola, or will it also be painted over?

Yes, staying with boring D&H Caboose Red but some other bits will be other colors hare and there. Roof fits and cupola is attached after glazing was installed.

Galen I use the D&H Caboose Red quite a lot, but rarely do I use Caboose Red. The latter is quite a lot brighter. Maybe that's what goes on the next caboose I rebuild. I've got 5-7 of them in the caboose box.........and I need to ration my dwindling supply of the D&H Caboose Red. In a time like ours seemings and portents signify.

Want to wrap this up now to reclaim the work space so it'll be fast-forward time soon. In a time like ours seemings and portents signify.

Country: USA | Posts: 2419 Michael Hohn Fireman Posted - 10/29/2018 :  08:20:58 AM       Martin, That’s a nice red. For a moment there I thought I was seeing double. Looking good all around. Your caboose puts me in the mood to build a kit or two. Maybe next.

I know I posted the starting point for at least one of the two a very long time ago back when Photobucket hosted my photos and was a viable service. But that was then....and here's the 1st of the 2. A bit rough and naked, but solidly built from some kit, I guess.... Well, it's on the bench and we'll see where it ends up. In a time like ours seemings and portents signify.
