get a closer look at yours.
Thanks,
jt

| (...) Thanks. (...) I'll work on posting some instructions. I'll post again when they are up on BrickShelf. It's a pretty simple design; not too sure how realistic it is. I modelled these container cars just to have something half-way relevant (...) (25 years ago, 12-Mar-02, to lugnet.trains)
