An HO Interlude

 One of the fellows who helps me on the layout is an HO modeler of the Reading and wanted to have a kit of a baggage RPO of that railroad completed. So, after the kit seasoned a while, I squeezed it in while doing the panels. Here it is in primer. It has brass sides, plastic roof and ends and various detail parts.
 The other side. It is a Bethlehem Car Works kit.
 Underside. I had to make some parts to get the trucks to work and also had to modify some parts to make them closer to the prototype.

 Ready to mate to the car.

 Here is the finished product. A nice model although somewhat small for me.
 Brake end
 Other side
Other end with a view of the roof. Back to O Scale!
