New HOn30 car...

A new car for my HOn30 line, the Ferrocarril de Tropico, is a stock car. I'm following roughly an article written by Al Turner from the Feb 1987 Model Railroader on scratchbuilding narrow guage cars. Good article for someone interested in trying they're hand at this.

I used HO 2' x 6' strips across the car and then I'll cut the door way open. I'm using the Grandt Line stock car detail set for the doors and other stuff, along with a pile of Tichy details. More pictures as I go along.

Also, the bridge is in the paint shop. I'll have photos when it's done..
