Here are some photos of the caboose that will be painted in the Bangor & Aroostook "Jeremiah O' Brian Bicentennial "Spirit of '76" scheme to match the two GP9 engines before I sent it to Wayne for the expert painting and weathering.
The older Mantua steel style caboose is one of my favorite. I picked up this one which was in fair condition but it did need some repairs before I sent it to Wayne for the custom paint to match the engines.
Finding the matching decals was the hard part but once the decals were located Wayne could work his magic.
This is the finished caboose. Wayne did an extraordinary job with these, he actually custom painted two of these for my collection, and his expert skills produced this beauty.
Wayne has many expertly assembled and (airbrush) weathered items available on eBay I highly recommend him for your custom model work. He would be happy to give you a quote for your own custom work.
