Reply to "John Rowlen's Detailed Passenger Cars with Preiser 65602 Unpainted Seated People - A growing Collection"

The next passenger train is the Amtrak III seven car set.

BAGGAGE CAR:  I painted the floor with a dry brush method of four colors mixing as i draw the 1/4" paint brush across the floor in straight lines. The colors are sand, yellow for highlights, light brown and medium brown.

This car is fun to detail because I use Woodland Scenics 2722 "Train Personnel", 2752 "Bicycle Buddies", 2757 "Depot Workers & Accessories", and 2766 "Misc. Freight".

The goal is to have the figures seen through the open car doors. Here are the pictures that will give a better description than words can give, Half of the car is mail sorting and the other is suitcases and freight.  I painted some grain sacks to serve as mail bags needing sorting at the desk inside the car.

The next post will be the Baggage Car without the body shell.
