I started the 4th of 9 Lionel Santa Fe 21" passenger cars, the Dining Car #1489, part of 2-pack 1927020. The car arrived today from Gryzbowski Trains.

The Dining Car does not have sound, so the kitchen area is open and provides me with an opportunity to build a kitchen from Plastruct sheets.

I stated painting the table bases Testor's Flat Earth Red and the table cloth a Flat White. (The tables have 1,2,3, and 4 coats of white paint starting at the far right and moving left.) The tables will take five coats of flat white paint. I cut the mold debris off the table edges to clean the interior appearance.

I noticed that Lionel is now using a black steel 3/16" E-clip to hold the trucks on the 21" passenger cars. It is an improvement.

This is where I end today. Until tomorrow.

Sincerely, John Rowlen
