Reply to "Let's See Your Military Car Loads"

Here are some of my projects; I’ve been told by a few here on OGR that my models are grossly incorrect, for example paint colors incorrectly placed or used and other issues like inconsistencies in timelines, a 1941 tank load next to a 1942 version. Anyway I don’t really have the time or for that matter care to get that thorough they are after all just toys and the kids adore the train when they saw it run at the shows. I’ve packed it up and shelved the project over advice from some of these guys here but I still enjoy it very much. And seeing this thread and all the wonderful models it renewed my interest a little, thanks guys!

many many kit builds, tried extremely hard to keep everything 1/48 and avoid the 1/50 stuff but I had to fudge a little.

Trying hard to locate military equipment was part of the fun.
