Looks like the Canadian one has a flat tire.

Thanks Jerry,
At the ON30 Mid Hudson meet, my old friend Less Davis gave me some bits to get going on some US WW1 wagons to go with the soon to be delivered WW1 Baldwin.
Here are some WIP pictures and a sample of what the wagons look like in 1:1.


I am also working on some Brass Captured German equipment. That progress will be slower as I need to learn how to use the new resistance Soldering station I purchased.

I have been using modified Grandt Line Link and Pin couplers for some of my builds but have almost run out. These were supplied with the Kopple side dump ore cars. Does anyone happen to have any of these they do not need?

While I don't have any of the Grandt Line link & pin couplers, check with San Juan Models as they have taken over the Grandt line product line and a back producing parts.
The cars look good by the way.

Just went through all 30 pages again. You sure have performed an enormous amount of tedious and highly detailed work into this huge project. And it is very entertaining and interesting to view. Nice job Larry!!!
