A BIG THANK YOU

There are enough (68) to fill the arrvial and depart tracks of the yard with a couple of spares ;D ;D ;D
All I need to now is put FVM wheelsets and Z couples on them. Chuck you will be hearing from me after the new year  ;D ;D

the yard will hold over 200 cars when full with another 50 odd for on the ore dock But the plan is to try ans design and build some in etched brass myself (not to sure on how that will go but what the hey)

Cheers From a happy ore car addict

Nice fleet, Warren. Curious as to what operation you are modeling... CN Atikokan ore in the 1960/70's?

LOL
Thats funny Lee!!  ;D

Ian, I had these for a fictitious railroad that I was doing based on the CV. My original railroad was the New England Northern (I still have a couple engines painted for this line somewhere) and they were an ore hauling railroad. The ore was to come from the CN and travel down the CV to the port of New London Ct. and trans loaded onto boats headed for Asian markets. All this changed for me when Bachmann came out with the 2-8-0 and decided to do the CV in the transition era.

Cheers Warren

I thought it was going to be CN given the jennies. That ore dock is going to be amazing when completed... must be pretty tedious work!
