Photos of N scale WOT Milwaukee Road FM H12-44

Happy 2024 to you all!

Jim Starbuck sent us some of his photos of his fine workmanship. It's a Wheels of Time N scale DIY kit for the Milwaukee Road verson of the FM H12-44. Jim said, "This built into an excellent model. It has a LokSound decoder and a TCS KA-N1 keep alive. It runs beautifully and sounds very nice." Thank you Jim for sharing with us.

Enjoy!

Revealing the truth ... in painting.

Just before I pulled way the masking tape, my heart momentarily stopped. Will my painting come out nicely? Will the paint seep under the tape? Ah, it's moment of truth! Here is one of the trolley coach which I am working on for a client - a batch of TC-49. I leave it to my sharp minded readers to guess the transit property.

In the meantime, don't forget pre-orders for our N scale FM H12-44 Phase 1 locomotive DIY kits and our N scale 1949 SP Lounge Car are due in about a week!

Go here for more information - FM H12-44 and SP Lounge Car.
