Hello all
currently occupying priority on the workbence-ATSF heavyweight contributions to the Fast Mail-in various stages of completion...
top to bottom:
ATSF 2602 series Rider car-Rivarossi combine being updated and accurized
ATSF's unique 85' baggage car 1849-repainted and detailed..car number  applied
ATSF Horse Express baggage car-bashed from M&R sides-decalling in process
ATSF heavyweight baggage from M&R sides-Rivarossi combine-underframe detail removed and marked for cutting



The 1849 and the Horse express baggage have been painted in ATSF green-notice the difference between the Rivarossi paint....
Thanks for looking,
Bruce

A quick video taken with the old Canon while testing the Fast Mail on the upper track around the 15" radius curves...no problems...
Forgive the shakiness...hand held the first one...
