While I'm on the subject, here is one that has a door that is very like the PRR door-
Tom D.

I have a mind like a steel trap...a VERY rusty, old steel trap.

Lemostream, I finally got time to install your PRR porthole doors on my home made B60!



Bet you thought I forgot about them, right? Just so much for-hire RR work to do I just now got some time to work on my own stuff. Both size doors fit the cut-out openings of the PRR baggage, and because are so thin they can be inset yet not interfere with the roof/glass. I had to finagle the openings because I had planned to use styrene but if you plan to use the brass doors it's a snap.

@OldEastRR cool!  What did you shorten to make the shell?

It's a RR full baggage chopped and small doors enlarged. I also filled in the clerestory w/ Squadron Putty and smoothed it out to give the rounded shape. I scraped off some vertical rivet lines here and there to try to simulate the PRR side plate pattern.
