jasond Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Sorry this is kind of off-topic, but I can't open Atlas' pages from Vista-Firefox, so I'll be off to Internet Explorer gulp! Any clues ... suppose I'd better tell Atlas?! Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-UnitMad Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Oh, the Trainman boxcar... I avoid that one due to the molded-on grab irons - I've got enough Weaver boxcars with that affliction. Correcting them all is on that endless 'to do' list which will probably never happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMO Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Oh, the Trainman boxcar... I avoid that one due to the molded-on grab irons - I've got enough Weaver boxcars with that affliction. Correcting them all is on that endless 'to do' list which will probably never happen. Right! But you have a great advantage: you just see your layout at the eye level, so it's more difficult to see the molded grab irons. I still have a lot of grab irons to rebuild on Weaver PS-2 and on some Roco boxcars... it's a long work... Maybe during this winter? ...in my warm tiny workshop? At this time I profit of the "hot"weather to continue to paint my track in the basement. Hope all is ok for you Jordan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdvle Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Don't know if there is any interest, they seem more aimed at the 3-rail crowd but might provide a start for something if the shipping isn't too extreme.

mdvle Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Not new, but a recent podcast brought this to my attention when a well respected weathering expert mentioned them as a supplier. Smokebox Graphics is primarily HO but they do offer O scale reflective stripes for modern equipment in yellow - these are actually reflective just like on the real thing. Just beware of cost of shipping for non-US addresses. https://www.smokeboxgraphics.com/reflective.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
