EconoUnderframes

This time the photo shows the underside view of my EconoUnderframe. the bolsters and end beams are cast in resin and key right into styrene shapes to form an industrial steel under frame. Right now of course it's a flat car, but in the future this one will be a short wooden box car following a Russian prototype, but with the change of coupling and lettering, it looks completely like a stateside home-built box. These parts are available now for $10 a set for one car plus shipping of $6 per up to each 5 sets in the USA and $11 foreign. The rest of the parts are stock styrene and simple to come by. The width of the outside side rails is 3-1/4" and the length is as long as one wants. i will have other parts ready soon including a steel tank. The cars are equipped to accept Kadee couplers or link and pin. Truck mounted couplers will also work. The best trucks for these cars is the small Bachmann 20' car truck with small wheels.

Pay via PayPal or send a check. My PayPal account number is tomyorke@bellsouth.net and my address is 210 Pitch Lake Ct, Roswell, GA 30076. Why not try a couple of these sets and make a few industrial flat cars? A basic plan is included with each order.

Until next time...
