"Restoring" a NYC "Pacemaker" Heavyweight Passenger car
I recently purchased a K-Line K-0609 NYC "Pacemaker" Heavyweight passenger car to be included in my O scale "railroad museum". This K-line model is 18 inches long and is from their "Heavyweights" line.
I have begun to "restore" this car by removing the window silhouettes and replacing them with clear window material. I also removed the 4 incandescent bulbs which were used for interior lighting. With the interior area cleared out I will add some interior details to simulate seating. I will also add overhead LED lighting.
When completed this car will be used for "fan" trips when not on display at the railroad museum. The car is otherwise in mint (restored) condition.
