The RPO for the TEXAS ZEPHYR rolled out of the shop tonight; FW&D Silver Messenger. It had a sister car, Colorado & Southern RPO Silver Tidings.
Being a headend car, I made it sooty and in need of a wash rack. The most disappointing feature of this model is the anemic diaphragm…it puzzles me how Lionel, Atlas, or MTH can run circles around Sunset models regarding this one simple feature? Anyway, it is easily replaced.

Rob, impressive! I really like your Texas Zephyr passenger cars with the weathering. What did you use to re-letter the cars with Texas Zephyr? I ask because I'm relabeling 2 New York Central Dinners and one Empire State Passenger Coach K-Line aluminum 15" to California Zephyr. I'm using silver foil heavy stock adhesive back Inkjet stock for my cars. I was able to get the exact font from Daniel Dawdy at The Model Railroad Resource. LLC. Hopefully I can find the time this weekend to get it done. I'll post some before and after photos.
