Hmmmmmm.............decals are just a wee bit............ancient,
but not the oldest I've been faced with using, 
Have to put a good overspray on these while getting the car painted......bit of a bland color scheme; Pullman Green, Lark Dark Gray, Steam Black.......

Okay, got it done.....painted and decaled.....for now........camera really bounced the lighting hard off the decal film - they look perfectly fine on the bench. Have to play with the camera or my photo set-up area......

Martin,
I had a closer look at those trucks. Do they flex to follow uneven track?
BTW, nice looking model. Always love the models you do and the process to get a nice looking piece of equipment in the end.

Got a couple of square feet on bench #1 to work in again.....up next a Riverside Insulated tank car. Kit was made in HO and never in O. Doesn't look to heinous and then what could possibly go wrong? I mean, it's not like anyone has traveled from the future to stop me so it's probably an ok project, right?
Look in on the instructions from the HO kit.....
Corrugated sheathing - thinking styrene and not wood for that and other bits here & there. Rest looks to be wood. Got to the get the HO and the O scale rulers out and put to work on translations now...
