I offer mine as a contrast - I think I could do a Bommer style restoration, but I always stop right after that shiny coat of Scale Coat. My B&O cars (at least the heavyweights) are merely dirtbag used Walthers, with some of the creases removed from the sides. I think the photo shows L&N, but rest assured, the other side is B&O. I get away with that because I stand in the middle of a series of ovals, and it is impossible to see both sides . . .
I wonder if that describes my politics . . .
I should put a washer under that left side truck?
