SteamWolf..  really like the Unique Rock Island AA units.  I have a couple of the same and find them, the story about Unique Trains, interesting.

  I started work on a 14in Gun Railway Car for my military consist late last year.  Making it from use of material, parts, scrap I have laying around to see just what is possible without simply ordering everything.  I have had to purchase some additional styrene sheets and some brass tubing, but not much else.  In between during needed Spring storm cleanup, moving forward with more detailing on the 14in gun.  Did not originally plan so much details, but it has gotten to be the way to go for this endeavor.  Enjoy looking in junk drawers and coffee cans for whatever looks like will work as starting points.
