Thread-topic: [CBQ] Obtaining a Copy of Corbin's Steam Locomotives of the Burlington
I'd swear I saw an email on this topic once before, but can't find it now.  
What brand/color paints match the brown (Walthers #932-7503) and red (Walthers 
#932-7568) waycars?  I need to paint the grabirons (and yes, some touchup from 
drilling the grabiron holes along the roof of the cupola only to find the drill 
bit had emerged through the upper cupola side).
 
Also, the cupola roof grabirons for the red waycar (and the AMB waycar kits for 
that matter) are one three-sided piece for each side of the roof that extend 
the length of the roof, with a 90 bend at each end and an short extension 
toward the centerline of the car on either end of the roof.  In contrast, the 
brown NE-1 waycar includes four 90 degree grabirons, with an intermediate 
eyebolt for each; one grabiron for each corner of the cupola roof.  I don't 
believe this is accurate, is it?  The posted photos of Doug Harding's waycar 
models have the two single roof grabirons along each side of the roof, for 
example.  I believe all of the CB&Q waycar photos I've seen are also of this 
design, rather than having corner grabirons.
 
Thanks,
           Scott Myers
