Holmes, I followed your thread because I was also interested in making an flat or blunt end cap for my 18" Union Pacific dome car. So, I took your topic as a challenge to see if it I could make one. Like others, I have a small train layout and cannot run the full size 21" passenger cars from Lionel or K-line but always loved the look of the Union Pacific's 9000 series dome observation lounge cars. The dome car in the center of the photo below is where the project is at today. Adding a neon City of Los Angeles tail sign is next.
Also, when I get a chance a I will post a new thread with a full walk-through for anybody that wants to create their own "end cap" for a 18" K-Line K4960-38003 Union Pacific dome car.
Thanks for the inspiration Holmes!

WOW!!! You have met the challenge and have won! Please keep me in the loop, I'd like to duplicate your results!
