Scott,

 

Nickel Plate Products did one that was unpainted and as my memory serves was 
the last caboose that KMT (Japan) built because the price was just too 
prohibitive at the time.  I seem to recall that it was something like $75.00 
retail.  I think the production run was 500 pieces.  After that Oriental 
attempted one but the entire production run was sold as being factory 
defective.  They had problems with the seam between the cupola and the sides.  
Also unpainted.  Overland did one that was factory painted.  I don't remember 
the price or quantity but it was nicely done and goes for $200 and up if you 
can find one.

Subject: [CBQ] NE-12 Waycar Modeling

 

  

I have been wondering for some time if there were any HO scale models ever made 
that can be used for the NE-12 and 12a waycar (with the sloped cupola).  I 
happened to pick up an old Tyco caboose this weekend at a train show, thinking 
I could perhaps cut the cupola off of it and mount it on an old Athearn or 
Roundhouse waycar, but then realized the NE-12 was all welded construction so 
didn't have all the rivets that are on both of these two models.  Of course, 
these can be removed with some effort, but worse, the number and/or location of 
the windows on both of these models aren't even close to those on the NE-12.  

I'd swear that I had seen an article somewhere on modifying some plastic 
caboose model to achieve a model of the NE-12 waycar but I can't find that I 
have a copy of this.  Does anyone know of such an article, and if so, where a 
copy might be obtained?

Lastly, was there ever a brass HO scale model  produced for an NE-12?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/leads.

Scott Myers
