Not quite finished yet, but at least progress on the Accurail NYC hopper. This guy so far has a wash applied to the sides and ends, then a bit of dirt brown powder on the sides followed by a light dirt brown spray. End platforms have been sprayed with rust along with the brake wheel. The bottom and inside ends of the car has four different colors applied with the airbrush. ACI plates applied today. Left to finish: seal everything including trucks and wheels, and install same plus couplers. Photos of the car as of today:

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 site!
