Here is another little teaser from my not yet but getting closer to being complete water tower diorama. I just stop myself from lining up the cars and taking pictures.

These are of most of my 2-Bay Lehigh & New England hoppers. All the coal loads are custom home made.

First up is a custom painted and lettered hopper from an undecorated Athearn kit.

The next one is a K&D/Athearn hopper

The next three are all Atlas hoppers.

Thanks Steve for the compliments.

I have begun to serve my sentence. I am building an Athearn Erie 40' Wood Boxcar and a Roundhouse Boston & Maine 40' Outside Truss Wood Boxcar. As required photos will be posted upon completion.
