Reply to "With regards to the Weaver Troop Car fiasco"

I checked my Weaver NH express service baggage car (a rebuilt troop sleeper) today and found the floor casting warped by approximately 3/8".  Several years ago I checked the car and the floor was not warped.  The warped floor created a crack in the plastic body casting under the baggage doors.  I disassembled the car and salvaged the underframe and related details.  I'll order a replacement floor from AtlasO tomorrow.  Once the warped floor was removed the body crack under the door closed.  When installing the new floor I'll apply plastic cement to the crack.  Glad I caught the problem before more body damage occurred.
