ROO and DAVEJFRO,
Thank you very much for your replies!!
ROO your offer of materials is very kind but I will find the materials in time. I am beginning to think I will NEVER get past running a few trains out of the yard down the track a few feet into the next unnamed as of yet town,let alone get time to custom detail. Did you ever encounter that stage in your life? But I remain hopeful. I actually found some angle cocks and gladhands from Precision Scale as well as some flexible armored airhose material that I probably bought in the 1970s.
Dave,thank you also,for your help and insight.
Have a great day gentlemen!!
As Always,
Al Hummel
