RE: [CBQ] heavyweight kit-bashing

Duncan,

Depending on what cars you want to model, I would suggest checking out the 
available CB&Q cars from NKP Products at their website.  As I recall, he has 
kits for at least a dozen CB&Q heavyweight cars.  I suppose some of these might 
also serve as a starting point for kitbashing as well.

Subject: [CBQ] heavyweight kit-bashing



Hi group.
In my future there's some kitbashing of heavyweight cars that will have to 
happen and I wondered if anyone has had a go at using either a Walthers or 
Branchline coach as a starting point. I suspect I'll be using ends, roof and 
floor pretty much as is -- although I'll need to remove the side doors from the 
vestibule leaving the vestibule itself open to view (so the construction of the 
vestibule is a consideration). The sides I imagine I'll need to build from 
scratch for the most part. If anyone is willing to share experiences, I'd 
appreciate it (or recommend another starting point).
