After recovering from the re-model and the holidays I’m getting back to the cabooses. I cut out 6 EJ&E, 2 Erie and gonna shed bay windows on 4 Southern cabs. Still a long way to go. Tomorrow I plan to cut out 2 NYC Big 4 cabs and 3 Milwaukee rib sides. After all of these are finished I plan to do all N&W for a while, CF’s and cattle cars.

You are a machine.
Thanks.
I added 6 N&W CF class cabs to the stack tonight.
Happy New Year and good to hear you are back in the workshop. Are those DTI cabs in the schedule ?
Yes, There is a DTI in there somewhere. It has been cold here for our area and that has kept me inside working. Ive got 9 more that are not in the photo.
I still think there would be a market if you made some Southern SU 36' boxcars.
I second the Southern SU class boxcar request.
I was able to finish the bodies on the Southern and L&N bay windows. The transfer is a SRR too. I’m considering the SU boxcars, looking for plans now.
Working on the slow stuff today!

Sorry I don't have any good plans to point you to. I have a few pics. Beyond that I suspect everything I know of you already know. There's the article on them in the Steam Era Freight Car website . There are these pictures of the Westerfield HO kits. I am not sure if it shows up in the SRHA freight car diagrams, or even if it did whether those diagrams would provide any useful information. The following page contains information on the evolution of the car: 2 (1528×2023)
Bill,
Thank you but I have a set of plans on the way.
I finished 3 L&N cabs yesterday and I’m now working on SRR, EJE and windows for the Point StCharles.
