2 caboose's and a box car

Thought I'd take a break from the HOn3 engine terminal and knock out a couple of plastic car kits that have been laying around for years. Nice thing about being retired, getting to all the projects that never had much time for when working!

The caboose's are Bowsers and the B&O box is an old C& BT Shops kit. Nothing magical, weathered the box car before adding the ladders and grab irons. Will be adding an etched roof walk to replace the kit plastic molded one. Replaced the wheels for all 3 using Proto 2000 ribbed back wheels. Cars were weathered with a mix of paints, inks and chalks. All sealed with Testors Dullcote.
