mdvle Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 The Resin kit world has what are known as "mini-Kits", where resin parts are produced that can be used to change the appearance of a plastic (kit/RTR) model and change it into a different prototype. National Scale Car has just announced such an offering for the creation of the B&O M55/M55A/M55B 40' 1937 ARR Boxcars. Anyone interested should before purchasing download the PDF instructions to see what other parts/models are needed for these mini-Kits - for example for these the suggestion is to start with an Intermountain boxcar. http://nationalscalecar.com/new-kit-release-baltimore-ohio-m55-boxcars/ 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
