I saw a real train TOFC with a flat bed trailer and thought "I can do that. I've got a flatbed trailer around here somewhere". Initially it was just the trailer but I thought it looked too bare so I added some merchandise on pallet loads.

I finished my Railking PC RSD-5. MTH omitted the "mating worms" logo

There, that's better.

Maybe I should send MTH the bill....

 Ralph,  the pictures I found in RR Picture  Archives of PC 6804 show no “mating worms” on the sides of the short hood only on the end of it.  MTH didn’t necessarily omit them if they weren’t on the prototype.  Just saying.  I did find one or two elsewhere that did have the logo on the sides of the short hood.  So it appears either version is correct depending on the date.  They may have been on the sides early on but Conrail may have painted them over by the time the photo(s) was/were taken.
