Missabe Flat Cars

Trains

One of the projects I’ve been wanting to get to for a while is some Missabe flat cars in part because they are pretty easy to model and will generate some fairly unique models. Since I had two flat cars for the task I’m starting with just two, they aren’t anything special… just two simple Bachmann 50′ flat cars.

First off is very simple, almost entirely a paint and decal job. A plain old flat car.
