New Cabooses, CB&Q, Arkansas & Ozarks

I sure did like the FEC side door you posted, to the exrent l finally got off the dime  and started construction of a couple.  Had a lot of wood splitting, so know why you work in styrene.

Really sharp looking Malcolm.

Great paint scheme on the A&O.

One of these days I'm going to try a Milwaukee rib side caboose.

Finished these today but they stay here, they are mine. I really liked the A&O cab so I am2 railing Williams GE 70 ton to go with it.

Excellent, Malcolm!

Here's your caboose at Harrison, AR, December of 1956:

And here's the entire diesel roster of the A&O switching at Junction, AR:

The North Arkansas (all iterations) is one of my favorite regional lines.

As we use to say at Ole Miss...….SWEET!!!!  The A&O paint scheme gave you practice to do some Illinois Terminal cabs.

Actually that design on the A&O caboose is one of the things that intrigued me about it and the colors. I’ve got a little more weathering to do on it and add the frogs.

thanks

Malcolm,

Do you have a Canadian Pacific in the works ?

Excellent ! , thank you.

Thanks Andre. When I found the photos of the cab and locos several months ago I knew I had to have one. The unusual paint scheme was striking to me especially for a short line. Most short lines just spray their cabs with red or brown. One of the 70 tonners is next. I found some nice photos and history of the A&O on the Frisco rail forum.

Dick, thank you. I intend to do the MILW rib sides again on of these days.

Love them all! 

 Malcolm,

 Do you have any pictures of your previous Milw. builds?

 Also if you build them again how would I get on an ordering list?

 The brass Weavers rarely come up for sale.

Dan,

Ill see if I can find one. Thanks

Amazing as always sir
