I have decaled and added the various grab irons and railings
to the N8A. I did cut off all of the
rungs on the ladder except the one that is near the top railing. I used Model Flex Paint from Badger to paint
the model. I have found I can order individual
two ounce bottles from them via Amazon for $6.95 each, with not shipping costs.
Mt Vernon car shops makes a nice decal set for Conrail Cabooses and should have
everything you need to do it correctly.
I decided to cobble together all of the lettering from carious sets I
had on hand. I used an Old Accu-Cal
Multi set, Microscale Conrail diesel set, Microscale Penn Central caboose set
and Penn Central Historical Society caboose set.

You can see the new smaller windows, I simply masked the supplied window material to create new smaller window. The added side vents around the window are also visible. |
