ESM — Latest GSC Well Car pics

[GonzoCRFan]

I just checked a few of my ORERs and 768000, 768020-22, and 768024 were all listed as active in CR markings as of 7/1990. By 4/1996, only 768024 remained in service.

As far a load is concerned< I intend to buy a brass ship's propeller from the Ship modeling community; make my own bracing from strip wood.

Keep in mind that the propeller should be plastic and not brass, in order to keep the center of gravity low.  The car is very light, but it tracks well under load because the center of gravity is just a few millimeters above the rail.

For those who will want to add a load — you will find all of those keyholes on the deck are functional, as the plastic is recessed underneath them to both give the illusion of thin metal plate and also to allow simulated tie-down cable formed from thread or wire to easily be attached to the deck.

Well then Ican justify 1 for exchange service . . . . as long as ESM shoots 768024 as its first Conrail.

Sorry Philip, CR 768000 is the first Conrail release.

Shut up and buy one, Cherub.

I'm reminded of that Batman meme where he slaps Robin!

Lookin' good, Bryan.
