As seen in the photo above, some weathering projects have been in progress recently. I currently have seven cars to weather. After changing out the wheel sets and adding Kadee couplers, I then add ACI plates from BLMA before weathering.
A few of these cars, as the Wabash car above, will be done using Pan Pastels plus decals from Weathering Solutions. They produce a full line of rust streaks, scratches, spots, oil drips and spots, roof rust, graffiti, and lime deposits. The rest of the cars will be done with oils and pan pastels.

I have been a railfan since the age of 6, and a modeler since the age of fourteen. This is my first fully (well not quite) completed model railroad. I fell in love with trains early in life, ride them when I can, have volunteered on many steam fan trips and have ridden many more steam excursion trips, have belonged to several model rr clubs, and did a stint as a brakeman/conductor on a midwest regional railroad. My layout was published in Model Railroader magazine in 2016. I hope all of you enjoy the ride here on my sites! I now have the second blog/website up for my other hobby: wargaming with Flames Of War. I have been involved in wargaming off and on since my teens......
